Published: June 7, 2022, 7 a.m.

Kris Wheeler is an award-winning documentary filmmaker currently in the production of a feature-length documentary about an MS Warrior who spent a lifetime defying odds while impacting countless lives with joyous inspiration. The film is titled Grace & The Great Divide-The Grace Ragland Story. The film tells the story of the inspiring life of Grace Ragland, who, at age 57, raced time and disease in a seemingly impossible pursuit when she entered the world’s most epic mountain bike race, the grueling 2,800-mile Great Divide Mountain Bike Race. The Great Divide would prove to be the defining adventure of Grace’s life, but not for the reason most would think. The story of Grace & The Great Divide is so much more than what one might assume at first glance. It's a deep dive into self-perceptions, how we define our self-worth, the things we're running to, running from, and why.
