Meet Andrea Lytle Peet, Raleigh native and the inspiration behind the NC Pickleball Plate.

When Andrea was diagnosed with ALS at age 33, she decided to sign up for one more race before her body failed her. When she crossed the finish line, she knew she wasn’t done. Her recumbent trike gave her the freedom to set a crazy goal - 50 marathons in 50 states. Andrea achieved her goal in 2022, bringing awareness to ALS, fundraising for a cure, and advocating nationwide for inclusion for races of all abilities. 💚 Andrea created the Team Drea Foundation, which funds bold and innovative research for ALS at Duke University and ALS TDI. To date Team Drea has donated over $1.5 million to ALS research thanks to the fundraising efforts of over 400 athletes and countless supporters. 💚 Now we need YOUR help! The Acing ALS NC License Plate will benefit research through the Team Drea Foundation. We need 500 pre-orders by December 31, 2026 in order to submit our application to the NC Legislature.
