When ALS entered her life, Elena faced it with incredible courage. For one difficult year, I watched her battle this cruel disease with strength, grace, and determination that inspired everyone around her. Even as ALS slowly took away so much, it never took her spirit.

Every mile I ride is for Elena - for her memory, for her family, and for the hope that one day no family will have to endure the heartbreak of ALS. Supporting the Tri-State Trek means supporting critical research, patient care, and the fight for a cure.
