My Story…
In 2019 I decided that I wanted to give back to the MDSC and the Down Syndrome Community. I have a very emotional and love/hate relationship with running. I'm not fast, or have endurance, but I have found the joy and therapy that running brings. While training for the 2019 Falmouth Road Race (FRR) I sustained a knee injury. I feared that my FRR journey was over. My amazing Wife stepped up and started training to take my spot. In a stroke of luck, my knee healed quicker than expected and the MDSC had an extra spot on the team. Laurie and I were able to run the race together. Running that race together with Laurie, side by side, in support of our Son Joshua and all the individuals with Down Syndrome in Massachusetts was an amazingly powerful and emotion experience. Throughout the pandemic I have continued to run off and on, but felt the need to run for a cause. I managed to secure the last bib on the MDSC team for the 2022 FRR. I am so excited to make a return to Falmouth and support the MDSC and the Down Syndrome Community.
