On or about 2011, I was young, full of hopes and dreams, and optimistic. Then I did the Grouse Grind... and I discovered how cruel this world can really be. I had never known such pain. The memory of the Grouse Grind would haunt me for years.  But when I was asked to join the McCarthy Tetrault LLP team to race up Grouse Grind to raise money to help provide local children with access to safe and educational after school activities, I could not say no. I recalled the days when I was young, full of hopes and dreams, and optimistic. I want that for them. Please help me reach my goal by donating to my page. I will document my journey up Grouse Grind at every official marker to send to anyone who may want to see the depth of my pain as I relive the nightmare that is the Vancouver Grouse Grind.
