Adam Lane, a member of United Spinal’s Oklahoma Chapter is handcycling across the United States to raise awareness about the organization’s #StrongWheeled Together campaign which highlights the spinal cord injury and disorder (SCI/D) community’s contributions to American society and struggle for equality.
Adam will embark on his journey on April 11th from San Diego, California for a 60-day cross country trek that will end in New York. He will make stops along the way to share his journey, promote the benefits of exercise and fitness on improving quality of life for people living with mobility disabilities, and to motivate others to join the United Spinal community.
You can follow Adam’s progress on his Instagram page @2022handcycleacrossamerica or http://www.adamklane.com.
United Spinal will also be sharing updates on our website and social media channels.
#StrongWheeled Together will run throughout 2022 and drive community engagement through educational and outreach campaigns around mental health and wellness, fitness and athletics, and emergency preparedness.
The campaign will spotlight grassroots connections and personal stories that center on the journey from injury to rehabilitation and independence.
Stay tuned for more info on Adam’s handcycling journey!
