Thank you for visiting my fundraising page!

Why am I running the Boston Marathon for CYCLE Kids? Well, in February of 2009, Tyler and I welcomed our daughter, Charlotte, into the world.  I am now more aware than ever of the example that I set for her, and the importance of a healthy lifestyle as a part of our family.  What better way to set an example, than to accomplish a lifelong athletic goal?  

Fact: childhood obesity is an epidemic affecting every school across the country.  It's important to teach children at a young age to get outside and explore - and riding a bike is one of the best ways to do that!

Your support of CYCLE Kids will help schools and community organizations teach children habits that encourage physical, mental, and emotional well being, brings communities and institutions together to nurture our children, and helps combat childhood obesity. Most importantly, you will give children a gift of knowledge they will have for the rest of their lives.

Here's where your donation dollars go:

$10 buys a workbook for a student
$25 buys a helmet for a student
$50 buys a bicycle pump for a school
$325 buys a Trek Mountain bike for a school
$500 supplies one school with helmets

I greatly appreciate your consideration in donating to this cause.  I understand that this is a difficult economic time for many, and any amount will be appreciated. 

This website is simple, fast and totally secure.

Many thanks for your support.
