My Story

25 Jul 2024

This August, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!

Why? Because right now, over 1,700 children are diagnosed with cancer every year, and it's the biggest killer of children from disease in Canada.

Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.

So I am raising funds through my challenge to help these kids and support SickKids Foundation to allow them to continue their work in developing treatments and finding a cure for childhood cancer.

Please support me by making a donation to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.

Your support will change little lives.

Thank you.

Mary

    Yesterday I clicked over to 200 km. So thankful for your support. So thankful that Sick Kids arranges this wonderful fundraiser which enables us to help the children and add valuable research to the cancer knowledge base. Thankful to be able to ride. I will keep biking until the end of the month. Again thanks to all my supports. God willing I will be back for Year 10.

    Thank you!

    20 Aug 2024

    Wild, windy and sunny! Beautiful day but I got buffered by wind on my ride. My busy day started with escorting Evie to Harrison Park to meet up with Events for Life. What an absolutely wonderful place. We had 2 walks. Home to get Geoff’s lunch and then out to ride. Meeting up with a great friend later this afternoon. Also want catch up some procrastinated tasks. Good day!

    13 Aug 2024

    Encouraged by Tour de France for women, I biked 13km today but in over 50 minutes- a few visits along the way. I will never match the true cyclist who did 6 km in 7minutes 25 seconds.

    Cyclist are tough athletes. The kids we are supporting are also tough and resilient. I admire each and every one of them and their families.

    Enjoy the day!
