Twelve
members participated in the Marathon of the Palm Beaches.
Not one of them had ever been on a handcycle. Five
completed the Full Marathon. Five completed the Half
Marathon (1 came in second, 1 came in third). Two
completed the 5K. There were hundreds of disabled
participating. It was AWESOME. The next marathon is the
ING Marathon in Miami which is on Jan 31, then the Ft.
Lauderdale A1A on Feb 21.

Participation in Research Opportunity Calling all
Registered Nurses!
You are invited to
participate in a study looking at work instability and
intent to leave among employed RNs in the United States.
Your participation will help researchers learn more
about work instability (the mismatch between the ability
to perform nursing work and the demands and expectations
of the work) among registered nurses.
For the
purpose of this study, you are eligible to participate if
you are a registered nurse licensed and currently working
in the United States and are able to read and write
English.
