Team Brandon raced the Philadelphia Triathlon. This race was originally designated as an olympic distance triathlon, but changed to a duathlon on race day. Team Brandon ran 3.1 miles, biked 25 miles, and then ran 6.2 miles. Temperatures were in the mid 90's, make it a quite a challenge. Check out the photo gallery for more photos.

Team Brandon is a father/son triathlon and running team. Brandon is confined to a wheelchair and enjoys competing in triathlons and running races. Brandon is the inspiration for his dad Ted to swim, bike, and run with Brandon so he can enjoy the thrill of competition and be involved in activities that he could not do alone. 

 

The goal of Team Brandon is to inspire and motivate people with disabilities to get out and chase their dreams no matter what their limitations are.

 

The mission of the Team Brandon Foundation is to educate people about the needs of the disabled, encourage, motivate, and inspire people with disabilities to live their lives to the fullest, and acquire funding through donations to help people with disabilities who are less fortunate by assisting them in acquiring special needs equipment to enable them to live and enjoy life.
