I had the honor of getting stuck in the elevator with Jon “Blazeman” Blias parents. Ended up talking to them for about a half hour. Their son was a very remarkable man showing everyone of us courage and what are sport is about. It was definatly ingrained in his genes. I must say I was very impressed at how proud they were of their son ( as they should be.) and how much of a positive attitude they had and still have going forward. As a parent I don’t know if I would be able to hold it together as much as they do. I think I came out a much better person after talking to them! Especially after the race I had!!

Nice words. Thanks. Seeing Chrissy and others do the Blaze Roll got me interested enough to learn what it’s about so in that way it is a positive thing.

That is the point, to raise awareness of ALS, and get people talking.

Worked for me, now I know. I’ll pass it on.
