Behind The Unprecedented XC Season In North Carolina
By Ashley Tysiac - MileSplit Correspondent
As North Carolina s best high school cross country runners and teams gather to compete for the state s top prizes in cross country on Friday and Saturday at Ivey Redmon Sports Complex in Kernersville, their successes reflect a commitment to succeed together amid a global pandemic that has turned their season upside down.
It s the end of January, a time when most high school runners find themselves running laps on the track indoors. Yet due to the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic that has riddled the nation, North Carolina distance runners instead find themselves racing at 5,000-meters in the dirt and mud during the cold winter months.
This month’s community support selection is the 3DP4ME Project in Jordan.
Fabbaloo: Can you provide a bit of background on when and how the project was started? What was the trigger? What happened in the early days?
3DP4ME: “Our founder, Jason, always had a desire to serve people’s real human needs, so after studying Arabic, he began connecting with people all over Jordan who were working with those with physical challenges. During that time he met Andrew, a Dutch monk, the Director of the Institute for the Deaf in Jordan, and the Chairman of World Wide Hearing (Switzerland). He had lived in the Middle East for over 40 years by that point and had helped provide thousands of hearing aids to children and adults in the Middle East, including 2000 Syrian refugees living in Jordan. Jason soon found an opportunity to volunteer with Andrew doing projects. It was with him that Jason saw the amazing transformation a hearing aid could have on a person’s life, especially a child’s.
