When I started Legs & Lungs, it was little more than a personal mantra I turned into a forum of inspiration for runners, cyclists and the "culture of super humans". We are sometimes elite athletes, pushing our bodies to unimaginable feats, but we are also the every athlete, driven by our own inspiring stories and expanding the perception of just what is possible in our daily lives. I started this to inspire others, to collectively raise our quality of life, but I certainly never saw the potential to need so much inspiration from the community for my own struggles. But then I got cancer and the struggles I had overcome previously now paled in comparison, and the flood of encouragement and inspiration given to this point has left me humbled and appreciative beyond words. I pull from every kind gesture, every good word and run/ride in my name to keep pushing through the discomfort of this trial with a sense of hope and positivity.
The original L&L shirts were a way of expressing our inspiration, our super human feats, in the public realm. They were a wink and a nod to others that shared our unique passions, and a way to extend the satisfaction we feel on the trails and the roads into the coffee shops and social clubs. These new shirts were created as a limited edition run for this fundraiser, the t-shirt colors differing from the original and the logo colors reversed as well, along with the "Raise Hell" theme printed on the back to show you took part in some way. Thank you for purchasing one of these shirts to help with the costs related to my current cancer treatments. I am, again, forever grateful and forever inspired by your generosity. I look forward to returning the favor when I'm out of this hospital and back on the trails.
