My Story

24 Jun 2025

This September, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!

Why? Because right now, cancer is the biggest killer of children from disease in the United States. Over 15,700 children are diagnosed every year, and sadly, 38 children die of cancer every week.

Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.

So I am raising funds through my challenge to help these kids and support Children's Cancer Research Fund to allow them to continue their work to develop lifesaving treatments and find a cure for childhood cancer.

Please support me by making a donation to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.

Your support will change little lives.

Thank you.

    “Hi Marita. Your name did sound familiar...Thank you so much. This is the ninth year I am riding for this cause and I am very motivated in doing so. And yes, I have stayed in the area, mostly because our children grew up here. Are you still at Intermetro? Again, I appreciate your very generous support tremendously, thank you!!!”

Und gefuehlte 100 Jahre spaeter erkenne ich da vielleicht eh nichts ;-) Ein Nachname (falls nicht durch Heirat oder sonstigem geaendert) wuerde schon helfen. Und damit du nicht nochmal spenden musst (nochmals tausend Dank, ein einzelner Dollar haette es auch getan) ist hier meine e-mail Adresse: julia.byriel@gmail.com”

I still think about our triathlon and it always brings a big smile to my face. We missed you the other day at Katie's and I haven't bumped into you at Wegman's in a while. If you are ever up for a coffee, please let me know.”
