Kudos to Marc Mast?s program


Thank you for your article on Marc Mast's adaptive cross-country ski program. I was one of the lucky few who got to participate in the camp and discover the joys of the sport. Using a wheelchair, I rarely have the chance to get out into the woods, away from pavement. Learning a way to do this using my own strength is an extraordinary gift. I left the camp feeling exhilarated in body and spirit.

I feel inspired to build up my strength and endurance and return next year, perhaps able to contend for a spot on the national team. Even if I do not progress to that level, I have still found a sport that I can continue to enjoy throughout my life. I am grateful to Marc for introducing me to the sport, and I thank you for helping him spread the word.
