This St. Cloud MN Olympian Was At The Daytona 500!

GETTING A FRONT SEAT

This woman is amazing...and it seems that she holds the key to living life to the fullest. I believe it was last year when Alise Willoughby was at a Vikings Game and was leading the SKOL chant. Who knew that she was also an ultimate fan of The Daytona 500?

It appears that Alise's sponsor Toyota made sure she had a seat at The Daytona 500 2025...but there is so much more about her that I never knew.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

As I was getting ready to learn more about how Alise was able to attend the Daytona 500, I learned so much more about her, her life, and what a True Olympian she is; right down to her core, that this story became not of how she was able to attend the Daytona 500, but what an incredible person she is.

DID YOU KNOW HER STORY?

I didn't know that Alise lost her mother to cancer; that her BMX racing husband had a life-altering accident; that she never once considered leaving the love of her life, regardless of his condition, and that she could share her story and inspire so many people. If you're daughter or son is looking for a hero, then perhaps you should watch this video and learn more about Alise.

PICTURES AND VIDEOS TELL A STORY

I see pictures of them; videos of them and the power of what they have built since they were very young. If you ever doubt how your life is going; how your life has turned out; know that you are worthy; what you are doing DOES matter... if what you are doing matters to you.

And...If what you're doing doesn't speak to your heart, then go find something while you are on this planet; no matter what you look like, no matter how old you are; no matter what cards life has handed you.

You are here.  Watch Alise's story and share it with someone who is feeling down right now. It can offer such hope. Thank you Alise for sharing your story.

Below is the video of Alise's life story.
