411: Kelly Brush On 20 Years of Impact: Adaptive Sport, Skiing, Cycling, and The Brush Foundation
In 2006, a ski racing accident left Kelly Brush paralyzed. What began as 20 Middlebury College ski teammates riding 100 miles to help her purchase her first adaptive monoski has grown into a movement that has changed thousands of lives. Today, the Kelly Brush Foundation has raised more than $6.8 million, connected over 25,000 people to adaptive sports, and inspired athletes around the world to discover new possibilities.
In this episode, Kelly shares her journey from athlete to changemaker, how the Kelly Brush Ride became one of New England’s most impactful community cycling events, and the Foundation’s vision for the next 20 years. We dive into resilience, innovation in adaptive sport, the power of community, and how sport continues to fuel Kellys life on and off the slopes.
