Charisse Hogan

YouTube     Instgram     Facebook

Greepers Ltd is absolutely thrilled to welcome Charisse Hogan as an ambassador for Greeper Laces! Charisse is an inspirational role model as you will see from her story below. When Peter Greedy invented Greeper Laces it was out of frustration of his own kids laces coming undone. Peter comments: “I never imagined at the time that my simple shoe lace fastening system would help thousands of people with various disabilities tie their shoe laces independently.” Welcome Charisse!

Charisse’s Story:

Charisse suffered a brain injury at birth due to being without oxygen for 7 whole minutes. At the age of 2 she was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy, Low Tone, plus Ataxia. Charisse was told she would never walk, however, after years of therapy, special equipment, hard work, and not giving up, incredibly Charisse began walking independently at age 9. Charisse’s disabilities affect her movements, muscle tone, posture, balance, speech, and causes her hands to have sudden uncontrollable shakes and jerks.

Throughout childhood Charisse struggled with being bullied and fitting in with her peers due to people often misunderstanding her disability. At age 16, as a very shy teenager who was terrified of any form of public speaking, Charisse began sharing her life publicly to the world through videos on YouTube and Facebook pages to educate others about disabilities and teach them to see the person before the disability. People with disabilities can do what other people can do, they just do things differently in their own unique way.

Charisse received Inspirational and Youth Leadership awards from different cities and the state. She went on to  speak about disabilities to different groups and students of all ages.

Today Charisse continues to bring awareness and understanding about disabilities and inspires others to always be “Beautifully Different”. She’s often helping others in the disability community overcome different challenges.

Some days are like riding a bike into a headwind - the harder you fight it, the more energy expended. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Relax into it, the more efficient you are. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
That’s how today felt with the balance of training and work to navigate through. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Everything ticked off. Nothing missed. Feels good. ⁣⁣

Posted @withregram • @amberjaynetri Love love LO Posted @withregram • @amberjaynetri Love love LOVE a long run especially a long run in the sun. After a gloomy week (news, weather, a few duff sessions after some bad sleep), 2 hours easy running was the perfect way to finish the week. It’s been a loooong time since I last ran this far (3+years?!) and I loved every one of the 26ks 😍

Posted @withregram • @lucymapp_tri Tough little Posted @withregram • @lucymapp_tri Tough little set today.
Track speed work with some tempo and faster efforts mixed in.
Followed a big refuel then a longer bike set on zwift this afternoon, including a bit of threshold work to keep things interesting 💫
As ever, using @greeperlaces for my run, @mission.uk and @xendurance to keep me fuelled and hydrated during training and @abundanceandhealth  @altrient_official vitamins to keep in good health and recover quickly, ready for tomorrow's long run! (Plus a fair few 🍌s, 🥖, 🥜butter and all the other good stuff!)
.
Don't forget you can use code LUCYCFORYOU @abundanceandhealth for your winter vitamins, and whilst you're there, check out their new product 🙊✨

Posted @withregram • @jasewalkley Another Saturd Posted @withregram • @jasewalkley Another Saturday another @gozwift race. 

This time building up on the 10mile TT’s I have been doing, I decided to step it up to distances I feel more comfortable at, whilst not as long as I will be doing later in the year, a 60k TT is more than enough of a stepping stone. 

Unsure on how I would fair over the longer stuff, I just rode off the back of high confidence of the midweek 10 result. 

Boom! 
Distance: 60.7km 
Time: 1:28:15 
Power Output: 274w =3.9w/kg 
Average HR: 157bpm (81% maxHR)

Provisional finish position: 9th 

Tried the free sample of @revviesenergy energy strip that the @komfuel team sent over with our last order. 
I had this at half way and it was a nice subtle kick to keep my concentration from waning in the final few km. 

Thanks to all that support me on my journey! 

@komfuel for top sports nutrition #thefueltorule 

@altrient_official and @abundanceandhealth for the best Liposomal Vitamins to keep my health and well-being on track. 

@greeperlaces for the best running laces in the business #onceappliedalwaystied 

@tritrainingharder for the top advice and coaching #believestriveachieve 

@trivelo.bikes for the opportunity to try out and review new products coming onto the market especially the @kymirasport IR50 leggings - helped prepare me for today’s ride. 

@zone3official for the best wetsuit I have ever used! #vanquish

The Outlaw Triathlon 
I was fortunate to have been mentored by the winner and current record holder for the event @kit_walker_tri. It was a huge boost to my confidence as in 2013 I could swim 3 lengths in less than 45 mins, let alone even contemplate a full distance triathlon. Like many I have missed the thrill and excitement of race day. Be it a sprint triathlon, 5 mile TT, 10k road race or even the much loved @parkrunuk. 
I would like to tackle that race again one day and beat that time 14:57:13. Not an earth shattering time but that’s my time abs my goal was sub 15 hours. So mission accomplished. 
During this end lockdown, like many I haven’t been feeling great. Moments of anxiety and dread. So it took my a while but I looked back at all the great races and achievements I have done and drew on those experiences to help set my mind to things will get better, we will race a again. So get out and walk run or ride and stay local. Like @sethjamesdemoor says “ Onwards and upwards “
