Tears streamed down my face when I first watched the story of Jon Blais as part of the 2006 Ironman Championship NBC television coverage.
I was reminded of Jon's story when the NBC re-aired the coverage a few weeks ago. I cried again.
People who go out of their way to make a difference inspire me to be a better person. Jon was one of those people.
While I didn't have the honor of knowing this amazing man, I have decided to do what little I can for Jon, in his memory.
I cannot even begin to do Jon's story justice. If you would like more information about Jon, please visit his website at www.waronals.com.
