Adventure Club - Meck Mile
Wesley Maxwell is no stranger to outdoor adventures ... he is a seasoned paddler who has kayaked raging rivers around the world and can often be found behind the lens at HPM events capturing photos and memories of everyone's efforts.
He is, however, a stranger to running. He grew up playing soccer many moons ago and has technically run one other race ... a 5K over 10 years ago!
When sitting around the campfire during his 40th BDay, HPM's Head Enabler was doing Head Enabler things and pitched the idea of Wesley running the Meck Mile (a 1 mile race in the heart of Charlotte ... Mecklenburg County ... North Carolina) a few months down the road. A handshake quickly happened and we were off to the races.
