THE STORY:
I'm excited to be racing Ironman Panama 70.3 in Panama City, Panama on February 12th. The day after the race, I will be joining professional triathlete, Chris Lieto, and 30 other athletes to travel to a remote area of Panama to help the Embera. In November of 2010 a series of devastating floods swept through the Darien Gap, destroying homes for more than 300 people. To date, 48 homes are in dire need of being rebuilt. We will be building four homes for the neediest of the families. Please consider giving financially for the materials needed to build these homes.
More than Sport began with the vision of Chris Lieto, Ironman champion, world record holder in cycling, and 3 time triathlon champion, who wanted to do more with his athletic ability than simply compete. Simply said: Chris founded More Than Sport to provide a way for athletes to invest in communities of need, particularly those we compete in.
We are able to improve the lives of children and communities around the world, when we become athletes who live for More Than Sport.
