An avid paddleboarder, Mike Shoreman was told he could never paddleboard again. But he didn’t pay attention to that edict and now is trying to make history.
That is the current situation for Canadian Mike Shoreman and his attempt to make some history.One is to cross all five Great Lakes on a paddleboat, which he says will make him the first person ever with a disability to do so.
A native of Ontario, Shoreman was diagnosed with Ramsey Hunt Syndrome, the same disease that has plagued a more famous Ontario native, pop singer Justin Bieber. An avid paddleboarder, Shoreman was told he could never paddleboard again, but didn’t pay attention to that edict.“It sent me on a huge mental health journey,” Shoreman said. “I realized on the other side of where I went, I never want to see kids or young people go to where I went mentally.”
Slowly, Shoreman got back into paddleboarding, increasing his endurance to where he felt he could take on all five of the Great Lakes this summer.
