Take Part In The American Lung Association's Virtual "Cycle the S

Like so many fundraisers this spring, The American Lung Association has had to adjust because of COVID-19 and has made Cycle the Seacoast a virtual event.

Never before has the American Lung Association been so important. COVID-19 is a lung infection and it's affects can be devastating to those with chronic and lung-related illnesses. Supporting the American Lung Association through the Cycle the Seacoast fundraiser will ensure that research, education and resources continue.

Here is some important information about the virtual event:

Participants can choose to cycle 25, 50 or 100 miles at their own pace.
Participants can get their miles in outdoors or indoors and they can track them and post screenshots if they like from apps like Strava, Zwift and Rouvy, (formerly CyleOps).
The event ends on June 30th. Sign up today at BikeTrekNewEngland,org and start your fundraising.
Participants raising at least $200 for the American Lung Association will get a Cycle the Seacoast event t-shirt, a medal and a commemorative bib. Raise $400 or more and also receive an official Cycle the Seacoast cycling jersey and a $50 gift card to Eastern Mountain Sports.

Because of COVID -19, fundraising is far behind where it normally would be. How unfair is it that a lung-related illness is putting a wrench in such an important fundraising event for a non-profit committed to advocacy, education and research of lung-related illnesses? They save lives every day with their work, and they've never been needed more. Please participate and support the American Lung Association.
