Adaptive sport opens doors to confidence, community, and possibility. With support from the @NumotionFoundation , @Dare2tri_ ’s Tampa Learn2Tri program brought together athletes from across the country to build skills, connect with peers, and pursue new goals through inclusive triathlon training. By helping remove financial barriers, this partnership ensures more athletes can show up, participate, and thrive.

I’m honored to be named a recipient of the Ron Weinert Ability Fund grant. On a practical level, this support is an absolute game-changer for covering my travel this race season—it means I’ll be able to afford an additional race, which will give me eligibility for the National Qualifier series awards.
But more than that, having @dare2tri_ ’s belief behind me has been a massive spark in my training over the off-season. Knowing I have this support while dealing with my visual impairment makes every early morning and tough workout worth it. Thank you to everyone who supports D2T. 🏊🚲👟
