2020年7月1日 / 3BL Media / -TD银行和Achilles International自豪地宣布有史以来第一个虚拟希望与可能性®TD银行提出的5K/10米。虚拟比赛将于7月18日至26日举行,为全国各地的参与者提供了跑步,步行或骑在他们居住的比赛以及日程安排周围的比赛的灵活性。该活动将于7月26日结束,恰逢《美国残疾人法》签署30周年。

今年的虚拟活动源于为残疾人提供残疾人的愿望,所有跑步者都可以参加主流体育赛事,同时在与19 covid-19的大流行中保持身体距离。注册后,参与者将只选择距离,使用计时器或GPS应用程序跟踪距离,并在7月18日至26日之间完成时间上传。这是TD Bank和Achilles International赞助的第二年。

Inspired by The New York Times bestselling memoir,I Am the Central Park Jogger: A Story of Hope & Possibility,由阿基里斯(Achilles)创始委员会成员特里莎·梅利(Trisha Meil​​li)撰写的比赛是基于坚信体育比赛将各种能力,所有颜色和所有背景的人团结在一起的。这一信息比以往任何时候都更重要,因为我们的社会面对对种族正义的需求不断增长,而医疗保健方面的公平性更多,因为Covid-19对我们的贫困人口产生了重大影响。

Hope & Possibility reflects the possibilities of what could be—a world that values all people.

"Hope & Possibility is more than just a race—it's a way to connect with one another, to unite and to celebrate through sport," said Andrew Bregenzer, Regional President, Metro NY at TD Bank. "This year, we are particularly proud to sponsor the Hope & Possibility Virtual 5K/10-Miler and support Achilles International and the work they do in supporting individuals with disabilities, here in New York and around the country."

The Achilles Virtual Hope & Possibility®5K/10小型人对每个人都开放,并吸引了来自世界各地的残疾运动员,包括受伤的退伍军人,其中许多人因在伊拉克自由行动和手术持久自由行动而遭受了多次截肢或创伤性脑损伤。在比赛中最著名的里程碑中,哈里王子在2010年帮助一名受伤的经验丰富的四倍体截肢者穿越终点线。今年,所有收益将支持阿基里斯国际(Achilles International通过运动计划和社会联系的残疾人。

"The Achilles Virtual Hope & Possibility®TD Bank提出的5K/10-Miler以集体行动和理解的力量为基础。阿基里斯(Achilles)为与TD Bank合作而感到自豪。
