PROJECT 50-IN-50 Details
PROJECT 50-IN-50 was the brainchild of Patrick Mertes and Michael Shelver, two outdoorsmen, living with type 1 diabetes (T1D), dedicated to proving to the world that anything is possible with T1D. During this project, Patrick and Michael traveled to each of the 50 states in the United States and summited the highest peak in each individual state. The catch? The duo completed the entire expedition in less than 50 days! (49 Days; 1 Hour; 9 Mins; 31 Seconds)Since first attempted in 1966, less than 300 people have successfully summited all 50 state high points--most do so over the course of their lifetime--none of those who have achieved this have been living with T1D. Until now.During this expedition, the team road tripped over 18,000 miles--hiked, ran, and skied over 315 miles of trails--and completed all of this while navigating the highs and lows of type 1 diabetes.
