Tri’ing to End ALS – One Stroke, Pedal, and Step at a Time

Donna Bartel and Mike Pearson want to end ALS so much, they are willing to travel a great distance to do it.
How far?
Well, 750 metres while swimming, 20 kilometres on a bicycle, plus running for another five kilometres over the course of a couple hours in punishing summer heat.
Oh, and they’re going to do this a total of 17 times during a four–month span that will take them 24,000 kilometres across Canada.
