Thank You Trekkers

On May 13th, 200 riders hit the roads in Talkeetna, Alaska for one amazing ride in the shadow of Denali. The 10-mile and 26-mile riders enjoyed sunny spring day on the bike path while our 60-mile and 100-mile riders tackled a grueling headwind on the Parks Highway. Riders, families, friends, sponsors, and volunteers gathered for an incredible weekend, helping to raise almost $250,000 benefiting the American Lung Association. Thank you for supporting clean air and lung health in Alaska!

If you still want to support a rider there is plenty of time! The event website will be open for donations until June 14th.

SAVE THE DATE for May 11, 2024, as we look to celebrate the 40th Clean Air Challenge.

      Why We Need You in the Fight

      In March, the American Lung Association launched a $25 million initiative to end COVID-19 and defend against future respiratory virus pandemics. At the same time, we're continuing our advocacy work to support clean air and redoubling our long-term commitments to lifesaving research.
