Congratulations #HighFivesAthlete Luke Eckenberg on taking 2nd place in the H4 category at the Tour de Nez Para Cycling!

Luke had an epic race, completing 14 miles in 52:29. We could not be more proud of Luke with his successes!

Luke was snowboarding in January of 2011 and hit a jump too fast. Immediately after take off Luke started tipping backwards, missed the landing and fell flat on his back causing a T-12/L1 spinal cord injury. Luke always enjoyed snowboarding, and following his 2011 injury,  he takes every opportunity to get back to the mountains.

“PLUCK THE DAY LIKE A RIPE FRUIT AND ENJOY, FOR IT MAY BE YOUR LAST.”
