Défi pour Steve O’Brien

Steve O’Brien et son nouveau fauteuil roulant adapté.

le début de l’été, que ce soit à la marche, en vélo, à la course, en planche à roulettes et même en trottinette!, a indiqué Steve O’Brien. Mais le fauteuil roulant, mon Dieu que c’est di!cile et tough sur les bras. Si je réussis à faire 20 kilomètres, c’est beau. Mais c’est important pour moi de repré- senter tout le monde lors de la traversée et c’est pourquoi je veux la faire de plusieurs manières.» N’ayant pas peur du ridicule, Steve O’Brien s’est également acheté une trottinette mu- nie de grandes roues et il espère pouvoir interpeller les enfants lors de sa traversée en roulant quelques kilomètres à leur côté. Dans les pas de Terry Fox à l’entraînement, il a marché de Hawkesbury à L’Orignal pour ensuite se rendre à Alfred et, "nalement, terminer à Ottawa. Il a également enfour- ché son vélo pour couvrir la distance entre Lachute et Ottawa. «La traversée, je vais la faire pour les jeunes et pour combattre le décrochage scolaire, a-t-il rajouté. Parfois, ça prend juste un petit quelque chose pour qu’un jeune se trouve une passion et tourne sa vie de bord.» Un dé! pour l’autre côté du pont En plus de son entraînement, Steve O’Brien lance un dé" aux écoles de Prescott- Russell pour la Course de la Fondation, qui aura lieu le 11 octobre prochain à Lachute. La coureuse Jade Bérubé, une des athlètes d’excellence du Séminaire du Sacré-Cœur de Pointe-au-Chêne, assurera la présidence d’honneur de l’événement. «Quand j’étais jeune, je courrais souvent contre les athlètes des écoles de Hawkes- bury, a-t-il poursuivi. Je me rappelle que je les battais souvent! Cette année, en plus des épreuves de 1 à 10 kilomètres, qui sont ouvertes à tous, il va y avoir un relais de cinq kilomètres pour les écoles. Chaque école aura cinq coureurs qui feront un kilo- mètre chacun. Si les écoles de Hawkesbury veulent se joindre à celles d’Argenteuil, elles sont les bienvenues et ça serait vraiment bien car l’avenir de nos jeunes, ça n’a pas de frontière.» Les pro"ts des événements de la Fon- dation permettent d’aider les jeunes à at- teindre l’excellence et servent à combattre le décrochage scolaire. Pour les intéressés, il su!t de communiquer avec le Centre de motivation O’Brien au 450-562-6262. Résultats du tournoi de pêche Rêve d’un enfant Achigan

LACHUTE | Toujours à la recherche de nouveaux moyens de locomotion pour sa grande traversée du Canada de 2015, l’athlète Steve O’Brien a récemment com- mencé son entraînement avec son fauteuil roulant adapté. Le fauteuil roulant est un clin d’œil aux Jeux paralympiques et aux athlètes qui ont fait de cette discipline de course un véritable challenge de vitesse. «J’en ai parcouru des kilomètres depuis
