Changing lives, ONE MILE at a time.

Team ONE MILE is on a mission to help veterans, first responders, their families, and those struggling from trauma. We all come from different backgrounds, with different life stories and journeys. Team ONE MILE combines veterans and civilians to recreate the teamwork and purpose needed to succeed and heal. By offering once in a lifetime challenge, we can reignite that spark that these individuals have deep inside them. Purpose is created by teamwork!

The toughest endurance event in the world, RAAM gives long-distance cyclists the opportunity to challenge themselves to the height of their abilities. Fewer than 2,500 cyclists have completed RAAM since its first edition in 1982. Solo winners complete the course in under 9 days, and winning teams complete the journey in less than 6 days. These modern day heroes brave the desert, plains and mountain weather, lead a crew and a mini-organization of support, and raise thousands of dollars for charities around the world.

“This year, RAAM celebrates 36 years of uniting people from around the world with a shared love for cycling and adventure through team bonding, struggle and a strong sense of accomplishment,” says Fred Boethling, owner of RAAM and Solo and two-man team finisher. “It’s man against the elements, the road, and ultimately, him or herself.”
