Full Circle Project (2017)

After sustaining a spinal cord injury that left him paralyzed from the waist down, world-class adventurer, nanoscientist, and professional athlete, Grant Korgan - who had never shied away from a challenge - refused to balk at his new reality because he still had a mission in store. World records were set when 38-year-old Grant Korgan paddled in a one-man outrigger canoe completely around the shoreline of Lake Tahoe through the night. The 14 hour 15 minute journey began at 5:40pm on Wednesday, July 29. Korgan arrived back where he started at Waterman's Landing in Carnelian Bay at 7:55 am this morning, Thursday, July 30th. He was greeted by a crowd of supporters, cheering him as he made it to shore. Korgan was accompanied throughout the entire circumnavigation by stand-up paddler Adam Freeman.
