Training with his father, 18 year old Robbie Phillips has become an accomplished triathlete. At an early age exercise was a big part of Robbie's therapies. Working with his Adaptive P.E. teachers he learned to ride a bike after his father had given up trying to teach him. Having already successfully participated in 5K races at age 8, he graduated to the pool to learn to swim, and then improved his ability to ride the bike and has now competed in over 30 triathlons.
