Hi my name is Kris Wood. I retired on a medical pension for PTSD in 2020. I was a police officer for almost 20 years in Canada. I am training for the 70.3 half Ironman that is taking place in Victoria, British Columbia , Canada on May 28, 2023. A half Ironman involves a 2KM swim, 90Km bike and a 21 KM run. PTSD continues to have a major stigma with first responders and Military. Unfortunately, there isn’t enough funding or resources for our heroes to get the well deserved help they need. I am hoping to raise $5000.00 to donate to nonprofit organizations and at the same time to raise awareness on mental health.
