Do I need any experience?


No experience necessary!  Whether you are an accomplished athlete or just beginning, there is a place for you as an Achilles athlete. For our competitive athletes, our Chapter participates in numerous races throughout the year with members walking, running, pushing, or handcycling their way to a personal best at each event.
