Kelly Lamb joins Wheel Stories for episode 16. Kelly is the manager of Team Reeve for the Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation. She first became involved with Team Reeve after her boyfriend, Jon David, sustained a C5 spinal cord injury from diving into shallow water in 2013. He was living in Arkansas, and she was in New York City at the time. She was looking for a tangible way to contribute to his recovery and also find a coping mechanism for their new reality when she decided to run and fundraise for her first marathon with Team Reeve. To date, Kelly has run 6 marathons for Team Reeve and raised over $90,000 in donations for spinal cord research due to very generous friends, family, and complete strangers. She was so thrilled to be offered the full time Team Reeve manager last February. Kelly resides in Little Rock, AR where she and JD live with two silly dogs and two very affectionate cats.
