Friend  ––

Though social distancing during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is keeping most people indoors, this Special Olympics athlete, Nick Borders, took it as an opportunity for a new –– and healthy –– start. 

At the start of the pandemic, Nick moved home to be with his parents. This arrangement also offered a fitness advantage: Nick could use the land around their house for long walks and his mother taught him new healthy recipes. As a result, Nick turned his pandemic-related isolation and frustration around — losing 50 pounds in the process!

Let’s follow Nick’s lead. What is something healthy that you pledge to do this weekend?

We are right there with you (virtually of course),
