Team Terminus :: I AM ADAPTIVE

Donation protected
As many of you may already know, Team Terminus is headed to the 2015 CrossFit Games! This is a very exciting time for all of us and we are thrilled that we have earned the opportunity to compete among the top athletes in the CrossFit community. 

In the next 6 weeks (only 6 weeks left !?!? What?!) we will be hosting a number of fundraising events at CrossFit Terminus in order to help alleviate some of the costs of this expensive trip. We would love for everyone to able to attend the awesome events we have planned, but we also understand that some of you cannot. If you're not able to attend these fundraisers but still want to help Team Terminus get to the Games, please consider making a donation via this campaign. Our overall goal is $12,000 for 9 people to make the trip to Carson, CA, and we're hoping to raise $5,000 of that through this campaign.

And because our journey to the Games is about more than just our team - it's about the incredibly supportive community at CrossFit Terminus where we call home, the community of CrossFit as a whole, and the way this sport of fitness changes lives for the better - Team Terminus wants to give back to the community by donating 15% of all contributions we receive through this campaign to I AM ADAPTIVE, a not for profit organization founded by adaptive athletes striving to build a strong global community and raise awareness for the adaptive movement.

The concept of adaptive athletes is relatively new in the world of fitness, and refers to persons who must adapt to a situation in order to meet their fitness goals and needs. This includes, but is not limited to, situations such as amputation, parapalegia, muscular dystrophy, special needs, scoliosis, traumatic brain injuries, blindness, deafness, lactic acidosis, cerebral palsy, and more. As they state on their website, "we all adjust to our world for survival, for strength, for more of everything we need and love. The only difference between some of us is the degree of adjustment we have to go through to reach the same result."

Team Terminus has been inspired, motivated, and touched by the growing community of CrossFit adaptive athletes and their committment to reshaping peoples' mindsets through education, community, and mobility. Team Terminus has supported the recovery of adaptive athletes, we have watched them compete and been amazed at their feats of strength and mental fortitude, and we have admired their resilience and dedication to helping others with adaptive needs. We agree wholeheartedly with the I AM ADAPTIVE founders when they say "People deserve to move, get around, and work their asses off in any sport if they want to!"

Several I AM ADAPTIVE athletes will be attending the 2015 CrossFit Games this summer, and we hope that through your donations we can help send more of their athletes along for the trip.
