NMF Friends Raise $1,000 with the “Aluminum Man” event

NMF friends Trevor Haines of DOJO Chattanooga and Carol Noon hosted the Aluminum Man event – a fundraising event riff on the Ironman Triathlon, which was held at the same time. While the Ironman competitors did a 2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bicycle ride and a marathon 26.22 mile run, the Aluminum Man competitors went the same distance, but in feet. After the 2.4 foot “swim” in a wading pool (with many lifeguards on duty!), they were on to the 112 foot bike ride. After the 26.22 foot run, they were worn out and grabbed ice cold beer in aluminum cans!

The hilarious event on September 28, 2019 was well-attended and raised awareness of Nikki Mitchell Foundation in Chattanooga, TN. They raised almost $1,000 and mailed a check to the foundation wrapped in…aluminum foil.
