Shane Hagerman
Shane Hagerman is On Point Foundation’s Operations and Race Manager. Last summer, Shane was approached by Arlen, the Founder of the On Point Foundation. He asked me to manage the On Point Adventure Racing team to raise awareness for disabled Service Members. The ImONPoint.org race team is closely affiliated with TeamHalfwayThere.com, so he drew on some of the racers he had history racing with and formed a team for the 2009 USARA Nationals. In the debut race, they took third, and definitely met our goals of having fun, doing well and getting exposure for On Point. As he put together our team for 2010, he established a formal relationship with Ronny of Odyssey Adventure Racing. Our team roster has incredible depth, experience and talent – we all look forward to a fun and exciting year of racing for the ImONPoint.org – Odyssey Adventure Racing team.
