Earlier this month, Team Globetrotters hit the tarmac at Chicago's O'Hare International Airport to participate in the annual Plane Pull, a fundraiser hosted by United Airlines to support Special Olympics Illinois. Our team competed with others for the title of Fastest and Strongest by pulling a 95,000-pound, 737 aircraft a distance of 12 feet in the shortest amount of time. While we didn't take home the top trophy, our team put our muscle into the task and got to the finish line. We also exceeded our fundraising goal for the Special Olympics—and we all went home as winners!
