According to the CDC, more than 30 million people in the United States have diabetes, and one in four of them do not know they have.

Take CF Away Cycle & 5K: May 4

Ready to bike and run for a great cause? We are an Elite sponsor of the Take CF Away Cycle & 5K on May 4, 2019!

This truly unique event is held in honor of two brave little girls, Kelsie (age 8) and Mackenzie (age 3), both of whom were born with chronic, progressive, and incurable disease called Cystic Fibrosis. 100% of the proceeds will go to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, an organization that is working tirelessly to fund life-saving research that will improve the lives of those affected by CF and hopefully one day discover a cure.

Participants can choose between a 5k run/walk, a 42-mile bike ride, or a 64-mile bike ride, and enjoy the lunchtime family-friendly activities. All runners and riders will begin at the start/finish line located at the Chatham County Court House, just behind the Chatham Historical Museum.

Bring in your participant bib and receive a free scoop of ice cream!
