A start line picture of a variety of athletes with and without disabilities starting a road race.
The image captures an outdoor event registration or check-in station where volunteers and participants are interacting. Two volunteers in blue event t-shirts are behind a white table, assisting attendees. One volunteer, wearing sunglasses, is using a tablet, while the other is distributing race bibs or materials from a box. On the opposite side of the table, two women dressed in athletic gear, including hats and sunglasses, are receiving event materials. The table has labeled boxes, small cups, and other supplies, suggesting a race or fitness event check-in. The background features a fenced grassy area with trees and a building, indicating a park or school setting. The bright sunlight and shadows suggest a warm, sunny day, and the scene conveys an atmosphere of community engagement and preparation for a fitness event.

The route has numbered markers (1, 2, and 3) at different points, indicating possible checkpoints or start/finish locations. Nearby landmarks such as Tracy Aviary, Liberty Park Tennis, and Herman Franks Dog Park are labeled. Surrounding streets and neighborhoods, including Windsor Place and Woodmanse, provide geographic context.
This elevation profile graph represents the changes in elevation over a certain distance, likely for a running or hiking route. Here’s a breakdown of the key details: Start Elevation: 4,302 feet Maximum Elevation: 4,308 feet Elevation Gain: 67 feet The profile suggests a relatively flat route with minor elevation changes.

A diverse group of athletes, including wheelchair racers and handcyclists, lines up at the starting line of a race, with a large crowd of runners and spectators behind them. In the foreground, three adaptive athletes are focused and ready: one using a handcycle, another in a racing wheelchair wearing an orange helmet, and a third in a green wheelchair wearing a beanie and gloves. The background features runners in colorful athletic gear, many wearing race bibs, some clapping or cheering. The scene is energetic and inclusive, with a mix of athletes of different abilities preparing for the race.
The image shows a fitness trainer assisting a young man with a TRX suspension training exercise in a gym. The trainer, wearing a gray "adaptX" t-shirt and a matching cap, provides support by placing a hand on the young man's back while he grips the TRX straps. The gym has a black-and-white color scheme, with equipment such as barbells, weight plates, and a squat rack visible in the background. There are framed posters on the wall, and a fire extinguisher is mounted nearby. The scene emphasizes inclusive fitness training and support for adaptive athletes.

Zachary Josie

Race Director
Born with Ellis Van Creveld Syndrome, a rare form of dwarfism, Zachary Josie never saw himself as an athlete. That changed in his 20s when a college spin class sparked a passion for endurance sports. He has since become a 15-time IRONMAN 70.3 finisher and a 2-time full-distance IRONMAN. Endurance sports have made him proud of his body and shown him how privileged he is to push it to its fullest potential. Now, Zachary competes to push his limits, redefine possibilities, and inspire others to embrace their own potential.
