Maine is one of the 11 states with highest COPD prevalence rates.
36.5% of Maine homes have high levels of cancer-causing radon gas - radon exposure being the second leading cause of lung cancer.
I'm riding to support lung disease research, which could potentially help thousands of Mainers.
..................................................
I am joining thousands of other cyclists and the American Lung Association to raise money to fight lung disease and increase awareness about the importance of lung health.
Lung disease can take someone's breath away, leaving them unable to work, exercise or play. Growing faster than almost any other major illness, lung disease, including lung cancer, asthma and emphysema is the third leading cause of the death in the United States.
Please join me in my efforts to make a difference by making a personal or corporate tax-deductible donation.
Thank you in advance for you support!
