Greetings!
More than 100 Achilles community members from around the world just completed the BMW BERLIN-MARATHON last weekend. For some, it was their first time flying abroad and taking on the 26.2 mile distance. For others, like Cedric King of the Achilles Freedom Team, pictured below, it was a long journey back to the course trying to complete his Abbott World Marathon Major Sixth Star.
"Just because it didn't work it out in one place in life, doesn't mean your story is over. You can come back again and again," he says.
To help us support more youth, adults and military veterans with disabilities, we need your help. Our annual Achilles Day of Giving is coming up on September 30. Our fundraising goal is $200,000. Every dollar raised ensures more Achilles chapters have the funding they need to support their athletes and breaks down more barriers to the start line for athletes like Cedric.
