Take a Victory Lap with us

Victory Lap is Dare2tri’s signature fundraising event—a vibrant evening of celebration, connection, and community. Held at Chicago’s iconic Old Post Office, the event honors the power of sport and the achievements of Dare2tri athletes.

What is Victory Lap?

Victory Lap is more than a fundraiser—it’s a celebration of movement, resilience, and possibility. The evening includes inspiring stories, athlete recognition, and opportunities to support Dare2tri’s year-round programming.

Proceeds from ticket and sponsorship sales directly support adaptive athletes by funding equipment, coaching, race travel, and community programs—helping athletes of all experience levels cross their own finish lines.

Honoring Adam Popp


Every year during Victory Lap, Dare2tri honors a member of the para sports community with the One Impacts Many Award. This year, Dare2tri is proud to honor Adam Popp.

A decorated para athlete and 8-time Guinness World Record holder, Adam has used his platform to elevate the para community and support others on their journey toward healing and growth. Drawing from his own experience, he became a mental performance coach committed to helping individuals overcome physical and emotional barriers. His leadership, resilience, and drive to uplift others embody the spirit of the One Impacts Many Award.
