New Tri for EoE video
On August 24, 2014 my brother, Brian Wood, will be competing in Ironman Louisville. This is his first attempt at a ironman distance triathlon, and he has chosen to try and raise $1,500 for The Hope on the Horizon Research Fund through APFED. Below is the new Tri for EoE video he has made in honor of Jordan. Thanks for being part of Team Wood!!
