    Bangladeshi Ironman, Mohammad Shamsuzzaman Arafat, races for disability inclusion!

    1 billion people across the world live with some form of disability. In Bangladesh, thousands of children lack access to disability inclusive services and support.

    Arafat is a triathlete, ultra distance runner and long distance swimmer. He is now racing to raise funds for BRAC’s neuro-developmental disability centres as he goes on to compete in Ironman Malaysia. Join our marathon for disability inclusion: http://www.brac.net/ironman/

  • Lydia’s gift: Swimmer with cancer thinks of others

    Lydia Cole has a gift.

    She is a talented swimmer — but that’s not the gift we’re talking about.

    “This is kind of a distraction,” she said with a laugh, gesturing toward the pool behind her. “It’s very helpful.”

    A junior at Thornapple Kellogg High School, she swims through a cooperative program with students from Delton Kellogg and Hastings.

    “Lydia is something special.  She works hard,” head coach Carl Schoessel said. “She’s never missed a practice.”

    Well, she has missed a few, but it wasn’t by choice.

    In May, doctors told Cole she had pancreatic cancer.
