Something Uplifting for a change.

https://www.klkntv.com/sarasota-man-...gravel-worlds/

Kids with "exceptionalities" (learning , physical, emotional and mental disabilities) often are either held back or made to feel they just sometimes cant do what others can.
My nephew is the first autistic person to compete and finish Gravel Worlds.
This kid (he is around 11-13 mentally) is an extremely hard working young man and we couldnt be more proud.
Seeing the rest of those training with him really makes you take a step back for what simple things can bring so much joy.
One of them learned to ride a bike for the first time and it was like he won the lottery.

He then outpaced his coach for the last 36 miles and crossed the finish line fist pumping!!

Love this. What an amazing trainer to keep pushing him like that, but most importantly what a ****ing heart on Joshua! Tell Superman thanks for the motivation.

So he completed his second 100 mile race!

If you all wouldn't mind giving it a view and a like that would help him a lot.

My brothers son has autism and he is a happy go lucky kid.

Sadly he has no social skills or awareness so he can't work, drive a car or do things others can.

He can take care of himself and cook and do most self sufficient tasks.

He is now in his mid 20's and my brother is fearful of what his life will be when he and his wife are no longer around.

They need to set up a Special Needs Trust.
