Brendan Quinn, Four Seasons Health Club member, was in a motorcycle accident in 2013 that that left him paralyzed from the waist down. Inspired by elite Olympian Josh George, Brendan started training with dreams of competition. On October 8th, 2017, he will compete in the Chicago Marathon. Every day, rain or shine, Brendan goes to the gym or hits the trail to train on his race chair. He has joined the University of Illinois track team and practices every morning before classes. His goal is to qualify for the Boston Marathon and at the same time, raise awareness for organizations that help people overcome different disabilities.
Brendan has joined the Easterseals Charity Racing Team. Every dollar raised goes to support children whose families cannot afford rehabilitation services. If you’d like to contribute, please visit kidstherapyprogress.com/volunteers/Brendan%20Quinn. Brendan, you are amazing!
