About Jayden
Jayden is 4 years old boy who has a rare chromosome disorder of 1P36 Duplication. This is the cause of other medical problems like Septo-Optic Dysplasia, Pacchygyria, Cerebral Palsy, Developmental Delays, and Seizure disorder. With the help of many medical specialists and therapists, Jayden is doing extremely well. He is able to walk with AFOs, see with his glasses and have had three eye surgeries, and he has been getting better at jumping and trying to kick the ball. He loves superheroes, enjoys horseback riding, and absolutely love being in the water! Jayden is very determined and motivated!
Just like Bean, Jayden's first experience was at the Allen Stone Run and was proud to show off his medal.
Thank you for visiting our fundraising page! We look forward to race day!!
“Team Hoyt VB will designate the funds received from this race to be used to support future involvement in competitive events, including taking these very special individual athletes to a destination road race in 2011. Many of these young men and women have never been on an airplane, much less travelled. Through your support, we hope to take more than 10 of them to a very special race next year (contact Trey White for specifics).”
