Author: Adam Bratton Read Time: 7 mins On September 5, 2020, I bounded down a ski slope called “Caribou” at Hilltop Ski Area in Anchorage, AK to a round of applause compliments of my wife and a few random bystanders. I just completed another Half Marathon. By crossing the 13.1 mile mark that day, my goal of running a Half Marathon in all 50 states was officially complete. What started as an impromptu and random personal goal a few years out of college turned into a massive multi-year commitment. The perspective gained has permanently changed my outlook on life.
Guest Contributor: Brian Mister Read Time: 4 mins Streaking. That word has a very different meaning to me these days compared to my college days rummaging around the UNC Charlotte campus. My present day interpretation of streaking is to run at least one mile every single day. This time, fortunately, with clothes on. I’ve been streaking two full years without a single day off. I’ve learned a lot about running, grit, will, and pure love for a hobby turned necessity.
With over a decade of successfully creating and producing events at ESPN and the Whitewater Center, it’s clear to me that humans crave and thrive on experiences. We all appreciate being part of something new, exciting, and engaging. Our experiences help develop and mold who we are. Human Powered Movement just hosted our first in-person event lovingly named Rocky River Shiver, and I know I’m not the only one that is still bursting with stoke.

I was born with Albinism, a rare genetic condition which impacts vision, skin and hair color. I’m legally blind, lack depth perception, have snow white hair, require gallons of sunblock when I step outside, am unable to drive, and have an extreme sensitivity to light. For much of my childhood I was super shy and timid, worried about being different and fitting in and unsure how I was going to navigate the world. I have found my calling. |
