The Ride to Conquer Cancer

June 24th, 2008 by Laura Croney

This weekend 2800 riders came together for a 200 km trek in the battle against cancer.   Each rider had to raise a minimum of $2500 to participate and overall $14,000,000 was raised for cancer research at Princess Margaret Hospital.  The ride began at 7 am on Saturday in Toronto, stopping over at Mohawk College for the evening and finishing at 2pm on Sunday in Niagara Falls.  Friends, family and even strangers gathered at cheering stations and pit stops along the way to keep spirits high. 

It was a weekend of smiles, cheers and tears with truly touching stories that give hope and inspiration to many.

Please join me in congratulating friend and fellow PHD’er  Kristen Sibley for her incredible efforts and accomplishment by not only participating and finishing the ride, but raising $4100 for the cause.
