Here I chat with Andrea Peet and her husband, Dave Peet. Andrea's been on a journey to become the first person with ALS to complete 50 marathons in 50 states. Andrea was diagnosed with ALS at 33 years old. Now at 40, she is super close to accomplishing her goal of completing 50 marathons in 50 states all while living with ALS, a fatal disease with no cure. Andrea and Dave created Team Drea to raise awareness and funds to help cure ALS. With only 3 races to go, the countdown begins with races left in California, New York and Alaska. The final race will be at Prince of Wales Island, Alaska as Andrea celebrates 8 years with ALS despite her 2-5 year death sentence. Andrea’s journey of traveling to all 50 states will be shown in a future documentary that's being created titled, "Go On Be Brave: The Drea Story." Andrea’s bravery and determination is incredibly uplifting. Listen in and share this beautiful story with a friend. Hugs, Lorri
