Life Changing!
It was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for me and I’m really grateful. Your leadership and expertise was impressive and the magnitude of the climb was not something I anticipated. I still have trouble getting my hands around the fact that I went to the top and bottom of that area. Not my definition of a hike, which made it really cool. Again, as an adventure, it was one of the coolest things I’ve ever done.
But the experience itself isnt what has me so speechless; I’m going to try to articulate it, though. I am a 56 year old professional man. I have been in high profile situations my entire life. That has afforded me opportunities to see and do amazing things. I’ve traveled the world, met two presidents, be in the middle of crazy fun events, and more. I have lived a full and productive lif; I’m not the old guy in a wheelchair who sits home all day waiting by the window. But still, you rocked my world. The idea that you have created this experience for people like me is jaw dropping. You and your organization thought about providing this for people like me and it has beyond my belief.
Finally, on a Saturday morning, 6 people I’ve never met got up and drug my big ass for a 5k hike/climb in what had to be challenging conditions for 5 hours. . That is one of the largest single acts of kindness I’ve ever received. For that, I’ll never forget any of you.
