This week is race week! What an exciting time to be a part of the Ironman event. During race week, everyone begins to taper their training. You don’t want to be doing 50-mile rides or 11-mile runs a few days before you attempt to swim, bike and run a total of 70.3 miles. Going into the event with sore muscles is not the vision!

Kenya: Bringing Healthy Smiles
Each day, we feed 1,000 children in Kenya. And this food is making a difference.

Join us in bringing more healthy smiles to children around the world. Donate … read more>>

And now they give thanks for provisions provided that offer a glimmer of hope as they continue to recover. By working alongside other organizations and thanks to individual donations, we have delivered meals to families who lost their homes, as well as to women, children and the elderly.
