A college student at Ole Miss named Nathan Won just wrapped up an epic 67-day, 4500-mile bicycle ride all the way from Seattle to Washington, D.C. — all to raise money and support people with disabilities.

Nathan and his fraternity brothers pedaled 70 to 80 miles a day, sometimes hitting 130 miles in a single stretch. They stopped at 45 care centers along the route to play games, sing songs, and build real friendships with residents. Along the way, Nathan personally raised over $10,000 for the cause.

After facing tough mountain climbs and long days in the saddle, he says the incredible people he met along the way made every single pedal stroke worth it.

“The main point of the trip is, yes, we cycle," said Nathan. "But also to make friendship visits. We do this to make meaningful relationships and build a connection. We don’t just go there and say ‘Hi.’ The main purpose for me is just to raise awareness and pretty much advocate for the disability community."
