Tim Borland: A-T CureTour

Tim has been running since 1998 when he trained for his first triathlon, a half-ironman, in order to lose weight and get into shape. After feeling that he conquered the distance of "regular" marathons, Tim decided to join a small subculture of individuals called ultra-runners who run ultra-marathons.

Tim decided to partner with A-T Children's Project to create The A-T CureTour through his friendship with the Achilles family whose 15-year-old daughter Cathryn has A-T. Her incredible sense of spirit despite adverse circumstances inspired Tim to raise awareness and funding for A-T research.
