  9. NN personal trainer scales Mt. Kilimanjaro for Alzheimer's research

    Newport News personal trainer Brian Cole scaled Mt. Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, the tallest freestanding peak in Africa, in February. After altitude sickness foiled his climb a couple of years ago, Cole recommitted to the effort to reach the summit, 19,000 feet+, as a tool to fundraise for Alzheimer's research. He dedicated his 2013 climb to his friend John Hightower, former head of the Mariners' Museum in Newport News, who has an Alzheimer's diagnosis.
