🌊 Cheer On Ilia as He Takes On the Mississippi - Projected Start Day, May 1st!
We are so proud to support our owner, Ilia, as he steps into a challenge that’s been years in the making. After a yearlong project and a multiyear dream, he’s officially gearing up to take on 2,300 miles of paddling down the Mississippi River — a journey few people on earth have attempted, and even fewer have completed.
With no established Solo Male Speed Record, a 71‑day cutoff, and the ability to take up to two weeks off‑river, this adventure is as unpredictable as it is inspiring. His ambitious goal? 30 days. His honest truth? “I have no freaking idea what it will take.” And that’s exactly why we’re cheering him on — because stepping into the unknown with courage is what makes this journey extraordinary.
Ilia will have a land support crew following along, but the rest of us can lift him up from right here at home. You can support him by following his updates, sharing his story, and donating to the organizations he’s chosen to spotlight:
- American Whitewater (national)
- Cape Fear River Watch (regional)
- Deep River Park Association (local to Central NC)
These groups do incredible work protecting the waterways we all depend on — and Ilia’s paddle shines a spotlight on why that work matters.

Let’s show him how strong this community is.
Let’s cheer him on every mile.
Let’s celebrate the grit, heart, and river‑deep determination it takes to chase a dream like this.
Go, Ilia — we’re with you all the way downstream.
