“Every single person on the planet can raise the bar a little above where they’re at now,” said Chris Ramsey, an elite athlete who will be competing in the Race Across the West in June. “Whether you’re a world-class athlete or a couch potato, the bar can be lifted. I hope what I’m doing inspires people to raise that exercise bar just a little bit. That would be success." Ramsey is believed to be the first competitor to attempt the race solo with multiple sclerosis. (OHSU/Kristyna Wentz-Graff)
