(Actual Post Date: January 21, 2011)

It is a very exciting time as the first Achilles Chapter in Arizona is beginning to form! The group will start small and hopefully continue to grow in time. Angie Caruso held the first meeting on Wednesday night for volunteers and athletes to come and meet each other and brainstorm ideas for the group.

What is Team Achilles Scottsdale? A local group that encourages people with disabilites to become involved in endurance sports and physical activity (walking, running, cycling).

How does it work? Team volunteers, guides and athletes will be meeting on Wednesday evenings and Saturday mornings to do workouts together. In time, the group can decide on some goal races. We will think about some 5k's, 10k's and perhaps....just maybe...the P.F. Changs Rock N Roll Marathon in 2012.

Team Achilles Scottsdale Mission: Get outside and exercise!
