The incredible story of a young woman living with Als, who defies all odds by finishing fifty marathons and, in turn, inspires people to, go on, be brave. Andrea Lytle Peet was thirty-three years old an urban planner living in D. C. newly married, and a triathlete when she received the death sentence of an Als diagnosis also known as Lou Gehrig's disease. After grappling with the fact that she will likely become paralyzed and die within two to five years, Andrea experienced an unexpected spark that changes her outlook in the most magnificent way. Inspired by Jon Blais, famous for finishing the Ironman World Championship while fighting the same disease, Andrea sets an 'impossible' goal to become the first person with Als to complete a marathon in all fifty U. S. states on her recumbent trike since she is no longer able to run. In her mission, Andrea recaptures the freedom that racing always gave her and inspires others to appreciate what our bodies can do. Her mindset shifts to accepting that although she is dying faster than she might have otherwise, we are all on the same path. Andrea, along with her husband and Als community, prove that we all have choices in how we spend our precious lives no matter what challenges we face. Hope Fights Back chronicles what happens when we choose to live instead of waiting to die.
