Fighting Spirit
Being an IZOD IndyCar driver affords me a lot of special opportunities; I get to travel to exotic locations, attend awards shows and VIP events, and meet all sorts interesting people. Not the least of these individuals are the kids that I get to meet each year during my annual trip to the Peyton Manning Children's Hospital. I have always had a great partnership with the St. Vincent Sports Performance team, so when they asked that I take a trip to the children's hospital in Indianapolis during the month of May I immediately said yes. I have always committed to an hour at the hospital but I have to tell you...I don't think I've ever gotten out in under an entire morning...these kids, their families and the staff are so wonderful and inspiring it makes a person not want to leave!!!
Each year the children participate in a helmet design competition where they color a helmet design and write a little bit about themselves. From the submissions I choose a design and have a helmet crafted in that design to be worn at a race during that season. This year's helmet was worn at Watkins Glen...and boy did it bring us all the luck we needed to battle from the back of the pack to a 6th place finish...very true to the fighting spirit in which it was designed!!!
