My Story…
Hi everybody! This year I have decided to run the Falmouth Road Race for The Bishstrong Foundation.
The Bishstrong Foundation is a non-profit organization founded by DJ Bishop this past year. His passion and goal is to provide financial assistance for people with spinal cord injuries to obtain adaptive equipment allowing them to remain active, and lead healthy fulfilling lifestyles. He has worked his a** off the past 7+ years to better himself as he has taken on life’s toughest battle.
I became very good friends with DJ my sophomore year at Westfield State University. In fact, DJ was the person who got me involved my current career as a PE teacher. DJ and I shared a passion for being active and watching sports which allowed us to become so close.
Just after our senior year of college, DJ suffered a tragic spinal cord injury. It left him as a quadriplegic but it has made him the strongest person I know. He has battled his heart out and is determined to walk again someday.
Without the support of hundreds of friends and family none of this would be possible. Please consider donating to this wonderful cause and watch me torture myself as I try to run 7 miles through Falmouth.
Donate to help Andrew raise money for The 2024 ASICS Falmouth Road Race’s fundraising campaign.
