Leah trains for the Ironman

By Leah Kaplan

I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for the generous grant that enabled me to purchase a Canyon Road Bike. This bike has truly transformed my training and has been instrumental in my recovery from a recent injury.

Upon receiving the bike, I immediately began adapting it to suit my specific needs. The customization process was seamless, and the bike has provided me with a comfortable and efficient ride.

Unfortunately, I experienced a setback in March when I crashed and broke my clavicle. During the accident, I was unable to remove my prosthetic arm in time, but thankfully, my bike remained unscathed. This incident highlighted the importance of reliable and durable equipment, and I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to own such a high-quality bike.

As I recover from my injury, I am eager to return to training for the Ironman 70.3. With the support of my new bike, I am confident in my ability to achieve my goals and inspire others with disabilities to pursue their athletic dreams.

Thank you once again, Gohawkeye, for your generosity and belief in my abilities. Your support has made a significant difference in my life, both physically and mentally.
