2024 Verrado Youth Triathlon is in support of Kinley!
This years Youth Triathlon will benefit Kinley, age 6. The inspiration behind Kinley Strong. In the summer of 2023, Kinley was diagnosed with B-Cell ALL Leukemia. She has shown so much courage and strength from day one. Since those initial 10 days at Childrens Hospital in Phoenix, Kiney has undergone months of chemo, steroids, ER visits and several surgical procedures. Just as hard is how Kinley is isolated from her friends, classmates and all the typical 6-year-old activities. It has not been easy, but she continues to smile and inspire everyone daily. Kinley will wrap up intense chemo treatment the middle of January. She will then be able to rejoin her first grade class at school and participate again in some of her favorite activities - swim, dance, and soccer. Kinley will continue with maintenance treatment for the next year and a half! We look forward to ringing that We beat Leukemia bell the summer of 2025. Thank you for your continued prayers and support. #kinleystrong
