Damon Jaenke To Make MMR History

31 year old Damon Jaenke will be making history in 2023 as our first ever registered competitor in a wheelchair.

Damon has been playing basketball at an elite level for the past 20 years and competed all over Australia in the National Wheelchair Basketball League.

Since retiring from basketball, he has made the move into the world of marathons and is up for the MMR challenge. We can’t wait to welcome Damon to Mackay!
