Anyone
who knows Nick Mortenson knows how STRONG he is; mentally, physically,
emotionally…he is so tough & hard working!
It seems like Nick came out of the womb handsome as ever and loving the water. He grew up swimming competitively and participating in extremely athletic races & WINNING!!!
Nick
has dreams of becoming a Navy Seal. He has done so many things throughout his
life to prepare him for it, but when plans shifted…he turned in his
LDS mission papers. He was called to
serve in the Chesapeake, Virginia Mission (largely populated by Navy Seals!!).
About
3 weeks before his departure date, things changed for Nick…
Nick & the guys at the SwimStrong 24,000 yard swim in 24 hours event!
On July 12th, Nick would have reported to the Missionary Training Center, but instead...his plans have been shifted again and he is beginning a rigorous treatment plan to BEAT THIS!
