Here is where MMRF shareholder dollars are going

A "friend" was floating these rumors a few weeks ago, making it sound like a business and not another vanity project.

Unfortunately, Leeper had other habits in his life that he has had to overcome. At the age of 15, he started drinking. Then in 2015, he opened a letter from the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency telling him that he was suspended after he tested positive for a prohibited substance (even though this was a nonperformance-enhancing drug). That event led to the formation of Team Leepster, Leeper's new management team formed by Entrepreneur-Philanthropist Robert H. "Bob" Lorsch, who funded The Robert H. Lorsch Foundation Trust before Leeper was five-years-old. The purpose of the Foundation was to encourage youth participation in life-changing challenges through science, technology or athletics completing a marathon, triathlon, or other life-changing challenge. When Lorsch recruited Adam Krajchir, formerly head coach and program director for the New York Road Runners Team for Kids for his Foundation, he never expected that he would be building a program that would lead him to Leeper, who truly sets an example of participating in a life-changing challenge.

So after learning about Leeper's situation, Lorsch led the initiative to get him sober while building a support system for the runner, including world-class coaching that includes Olympic Gold Medalist and Super Bowl Champion Willie Gault, nutritional and weight training programs led by Johann Stefansson at Muscle Mechanics, a team of psychiatric recovery experts and other medical professionals from The Bresler Center, entertainment executive and former COO and Co-head of the CW Television Network John D. Maatta, sports marketing expertise and funding through The Victorino Noval Foundation, and financial and business management from Nigro Karlin Segal Feldstein & Bolno. Patrick also continues to be sponsored by Nike, Eastman Chemical Company, Probulin, Internet entrepreneur and Webcreators founder David Vanderveer, and with support from Quest Nutrition.

eam Leepster's first and foremost objective was to support Leeper in his sobriety and set an example of what can be done regardless of the adversities life throws your way. According to Lorsch, "Through a team of legal professionals, Team Leepster reached out to the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency to negotiate a reduction to what was originally a two-year suspension from competition. After months of negotiations, the parties all agreed that a one-year suspension was appropriate and a settlement agreement was signed by Leeper, subject to a right to appeal by certain parties."

"I have never been more in the background for Patrick than in negotiating his settlement with USADA," Lorsch continued. "Despite the demands that were made in his agreement, he just wanted to compete by running. USADA wanted to make sure he got the help that he needed and he remained in recovery with the understanding that if he did, he could run after one year. USADA has been 100% supportive and is doing its best to keep their agreement by allowing him to run starting June 21st."

At the 2012 Paralympic Games in London, Leeper earned a bronze in the 200 meters and a silver in the 400 meters, just behind Oscar Pistorius. After the South African's conviction for murder, Leeper was expected to be a gold contender for the 2016 Paralympics and possibly the main Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. Then in June 2015, he was given a two-year suspension for using a nonperformance-enhancing substance. This would have precluded him from going to Rio, but Los Angeles businessman-philanthropist Robert H. "Bob" Lorsch, after learning about Patrick's situation, formed #TeamLeepster which negotiated a one-year suspension, with the expectation that he can go to the Paralympic and Olympic trials.
