This weekend is the annual LIVESTRONG Challenge in Austin. As most of you may know, LIVESTRONG.COM is a licensing partner of the Lance Armstrong Foundation (LIVESTRONG) and we provide support for and broaden awareness of the Foundation's mission to provide services for people affected by cancer, though that is not the only function of our site.
As part of our support for our partners at the Lance Armstrong Foundation, members of the LIVESTRONG.COM will be in Austin to take part in the annual challenge. The festivities include a variety of fitness events, such as cycling opportunities for all levels of riders. The entire weekend of events (including a Sunday bike ride) is dedicated to the fight against cancer, and supporting cancer survivors so that they can live their lives to fullest. Last year participants raised more than 3.1 million dollars.
This is the final event in the Challenge series of 2011. One of the highlights of the weekend occurs on Saturday, October 15, with 5K run/walk through downtown Austin.
We would like to invite anyone to join us for the 5K run and meet some of the members of the LIVESTRONG.COM team. If you would like to join, click here to be added to our team.
If you register, click here to send me a note and we can coordinate meeting up Saturday before the race!
We hope to see you there.
