Brandon Lyons, from Mechanicsburg, PA, graduated from Penn State University in 2012 and started his career with Ernst & Young in the Washington, D.C. region. Things changed on May 24, 2014, when he dove into shallow water, breaking his T5/T6 vertebrae and leaving him paralyzed from the chest down. Lyons quickly took on this new challenge and completed a marathon just five months after the date of his injury. He found his passion for handcycling and would relocate to the USPOC training center in Colorado Springs exactly three years after the date of his injury. Lyons made his first national team in 2019 and is aiming for the Paris Paralympics later this summer.
