Cycling for 'Life and Breath'
Surrey's Jonie May Pascual joined more than 250 cycling enthusiasts and event volunteers from across B.C. for BC Lung Association's 27th Bicycle Trek for Life and Breath, held Sept. 10-11. Pascual was one of 19 Surrey 'trekkers' who took part, many of whom return annually for the two-day, 200-kilometre ride through the Fraser Valley to raise funds in support of lunghealth research, programs and cleanair initiatives. So far, the 2011 event has raised more than $170,000, adding to the $5 million raised during the event's 27year lifespan.
