Fundraising Honor Roll

I'm switching again from Running to Cycling

 I will be returning for my 8th time to ride in the American Diabetes Association's Tour de Cure on March 16, 2013 in Phoenix. Please support me with a donation by selecting the "Click Here to Sponsor Me" button. Our efforts will help set the pace in the fight against diabetes. So let's get in gear and bike to beat diabetes!

 I've run many miles for TEAM DIABETES (and continue to coach the marathon training team in Phoenix) and know that it can make a difference for those affected by diabetes. I'm now doing cycling and would like your support. I started at the 30-35 mile distance for 2 years and then progressed to the "Metric Century" (62.5 miles) for 4 years, and finally did the 80 mile ride last year.  Read the MAJOR NEWS below as I am going for the new 100 mile distance this year and the only thing I hope is that there is someone there when I finish, because I WILL finish. Just as every footstep taken with our Team Diabetes Marathon group helps towards the ADA mission "to prevent and cure diabetes and improve the lives of all people affected by diabetes", I know every stroke of the pedals with Team Diabetes Cycling group also supports that mission. 

MAJOR NEWS:  They are adding a new distance this year 100 Miles and I'm shooting to complete it.  I've never gone over 84 before so this will be a challenge.  I learned last year at the 84 mile distance that I need to train more and I'm going to commit to that for 2013.

Diabetes is one of the fastest growing epidemics in American and I want to help "STOP DIABETES". With my wife and family members in both of our families having diabetes, I've seen first hand how it can change the life they lead and I want to do what I can to beat this terrible disease. I know I'm not an experienced cyclist and will expend a lot more energy than I should completing this ride, but my effort is nothing compared to the difficulty that the almost 26 million Americans suffering with diabetes face every day just trying to lead a "normal" life. I want to support the American Diabetes Association in their efforts to improve the lives of all people with diabetes.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and any help you can provide will be sincerely appreciated. No contribution is too large or too small as together we support this great cause.  Remember all donations are 100% Tax Deductible.  And I promise that I will complete every long mile of this tour.
