12 in 24...Skydiving for Myelin

Friday I joined a team of skydivers from Tampa bay, FL for my first tandem jump from 14,500 ft! They were jumping for the Myelin Project and to raise awareness for what the organization supports while jumping from 12 different drops in 24 hrs across the state of FL. When we finished around 1230am on Saturday, they had been up since 4am Friday and were able to complete 10 jumps. Despite coming up short, the feat was nonetheless impressive and I was so pumped to be a part of their efforts and to accomplish my goal to jump. Thank you to the whole 12 in 24 and Myelin Project crew for making it a memorable 24 hrs!!
