I’m dedicating this ride (my first ever century) to my brother Kim Nutter who passed away on 11/15/04 of Leukemia. Kim was an elite long distance runner and a veteren of the Iraq war. Having retired from the Marine Corp after 28 years. I still believe he became ill from the smoke of the oil fires in the early 90′s. Never been sick, never hospitalized. He was my only sibling and with 7 years difference in our age we did not spend much time together growing up. I did have the opportunity to run with him in several races but was never close to catching him. I’m a sprinter so long distance was a stretch. Receiving free entry into this race would be a gift and only inspire me more to finish strong!

Last year was my first TdT. Six months earlier is when I started riding. I exceeded my goal to be under 6 hours on my 23# Mercier. Since then I’ve purchased a Felt F3, joined a racing team entering several races in masters 55 category, and now I stay at the front of the early (old man’s) Shootout. To reach my goal this year I have to shave 48 min 30 sec. Several have encouraged me saying I can do it. Lord willing, that’s what I’m going to do.

After being paralyzed in a near fatal car accident and making a comeback and stronger then ever. I am always looking to head to new events to both challenge myself as well as boost my exposure to try and help use my story to motivate others.
