NOLS Grad Racing with Lance
April 20, 2005
NOLS grad, Jason McCartney, is competing this week in the Tour de Georgia as a member of Lance Armstrong’s Discovery Channel Team. On Wednesday Lance finished third in the stage. Jason was part of an early breakaway.
Jason completed a NOLS Semester in the Rockies in 1991 and was featured in the Fall, 2004 issue of The Leader. “I think one of the keys to any NOLS course is group dynamics, and working in a group is what cycling is all about,” says McCartney. “The impact NOLS had on me was to open up new ideas about trying new things and tackling fears.”
Best wishes to Jason and the Discovery Channel team as they tune up for the 2005 Tour de France.
Bruce Palmer, NOLS marketing director
