In 2018 my friend, Donna Coto put together a large team for the hike and I was privileged to be one of those hikers. I had never attempted to do a 14er before that day. It was long and hard, but once I reached the summit, I realized it was one of the proudest moments of my life. We hiked for Team Kumi, who is Donna's best friend, and is living with a traumatic brain injury following a drunk driving accident when she was in high school. I really thought it was going to be a one and done. But, my son asked me earlier this year if I would go back and do the hike with him. He is turning 18 just 5 days before the hike this year and I'm honored her asked me to do it again. Thank you so much for your support! Liam and I both look forward to reaching the summit and celebrating our achievement with a large sum of money donated to a very worthy cause!
