Tour de Cure...

Early this morning Mike and I headed out to Reston to support our friends Brett & Jill Gardner; a.k.a. the Dia~Beaters. The American Diabetes Association created the Tour de Cure - a series of bike rides that begin and end at the Reston Towncenter. Participants had to raise at least $175 to participate, but could raise more to support diabetes research. There were 5 different
distances you could choose to ride:

  • 1-12 Mile Family Fun Ride
  • 12/20/32 Mile Fitness Test Ride
  • 33 Mile Metric Half Century Ride
  • 63 Mile Metric Century Ride
  • 100 Mile Century Ride
The Gardners courageously took on the 33 Mile Half Century Ride. They got started on the course at about 9am and crossed the finish at about 1pm. I'm so proud that they were able to support such a great cause! I hope to be able to be part of their team next year...


Congrats Gardner's!
