[vc_row][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2/3″][vc_column_text]Always on a bike as a kid, Kilee learned slow-twitch muscles are her friends as they led her into the world of endurance events. Her love of cycling blossomed at the age of 18 while exploring North Dakota’s beautiful badlands on the Maah Daah Hey trail. Eventually she began road cycling and triathlon, competing in shorter races throughout her 20s. As her affection for cycling and triathlon grew, so too did the distances, and she is now a two-time Ironman Wisconsin finisher. As the executive director for Gaia Home, the 2022 Race Across America will be her most challenging and rewarding race to date. She is passionate about ensuring Gaia Home becomes reality as it provides a solution for the gap in end-of-life care that currently exists in our community and state, giving families and their loved ones the opportunity to receive compassionate care while living the final season of life together in a true home setting, making lasting memories. Fun fact: Kilee’s must have for every ride…a tube of chapstick. She can’t pedal without it![/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Donate to Kilee’s Cause” style=”flat” shape=”square” color=”danger” size=”lg” align=”center” button_block=”true” link=”url:http%3A%2F%2Flovesweatandgears.net%2Fdonate|||”][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/3″][vc_single_image image=”14328″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row]
