Join me and help improve the lives of people with disabilities through sports
Hello my name is Lizzie I’ve been an adaptive athlete with the Kyle Pease Foundation for almost 6 years. My first race was in October 2016 and I fell madly in love with the sport! Everyone knows I love to go very fast.
At the 2018 MCM I with my partner Gordy qualified for the 2020 Boston Marathon unfortunately due to COVID we didn’t get race until 2022. It was the most exciting race I’ve ever done and it was an extreme honor.
All my races are in memory and to honor my late father Marine Cpl. Dick Kirksey who was an avid runner in high school. I know that he is very proud of me in my races.
I am excited to be joining The Kyle Pease Foundation at the 2022 Marine Corps Marathon in support of people with disabilities! Your gift will go a long way to help support the athletes and families that make up The Kyle Pease Foundation. It isn’t about the race shirt or medal. Research has shown that an in-chair athlete experiences the same rush of endorphins their push-assist athlete does. More significant is that they and their families get to be like everyone else for a moment!
