The Challenged Athletes Foundation’s program Operation Rebound is sending Bobby Donnelly from the United State’s Navy to race with our club Saturday, July 9th.   We encourage all members to consider attending the event to either race, volunteer or just cheer on our guest and other club members.

Bobby’s Bio:

Bobby Donnelly, United States Navy – In 2008 Bobby severely injured his ankle during a parachute training exercise. After enduring over two years of repeated surgeries and infections, he made the decision to amputate his right leg below the knee so that he could remain active and continue his work in the Navy. On December 9, 2010, Donnelly had his amputation surgery and recently began walking on his new prosthetic leg. Bobby’s first post-amputation competition took place on 1 April 2011 when he swam 1.2 miles in 32 minutes at Ironman California 70.3.

There will be no kids race after the adult event because of the heat.

Registation begins at 5:15 AM
