Kyle and Nico will both travel to Vancouver, British Columbia on June 10th to compete in a Spartan Race for SideStix-sponsored, Team Defy Convention.  The grueling obstacle course will be a test of strength, stamina, and mental toughness. I would love to support my sons and witness the event in person but will be in Ecuador with Maya at the time. Jeanine has expressed interest in going and I hope to share the experience through her eyes. Nicolai was an early adopter of the high-performance forearm crutches manufactured by SideStix.  He has served as a field tester, brand ambassador, sponsored athlete, and summer intern for the company.  When asked by Nico to join the team, Kyle was quick to step up and lend his support, something he has always done since they were small boys. We could not be prouder of both of them.
