The great thing
in life is not
so much where we stand,
but in what direction
we are moving.
-Goethe

Once you make a decision,
the universe conspires to
make it happen.

Activities
& Events
|
There
is a wide
range of
events that
happen year
round to raise
money for
life-threatening
diseases.
While
many of
these events are races, most of us
participate to finish the event,
not
compete. Or we compete against
ourselves, just trying to run a
little
faster, bike a little faster, walk
a little further, tri a little
harder each time.
Whatever
your interest, there is nothing
quite like crossing the finish
line!
