Bonney Lake Triathlon Past Results
Cancellation of the 2020 Bonney Lake Triathlon
|
It is with huge sadness that we made the decision to cancel the 2020 Bonney Lake Triathlon, as it is pretty clear that the Washington State Phases for a Safe Opening are not moving fast enough for us to ensure we can promote the event. We know that all of you enjoy the competitive, fun nature of our events and were hoping to participate as much as we were looking forward to seeing you. For those of you who registered, I will be sending out an email from RunSignUp later this week giving you a few options that you will be able to select: 1) Defer your registration fee to 2021 2) Donate your registration fee to the event, which be donated to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation and used to cover the costs already spent for the event 3) Choose to donate a portion and Defer/Refund the rest of the funds 4) Request a refund |
BuDu Racing, LLC Charity of Choice: JDRF!
 |
BuDu Racing, LLC is proud to pledge a portion of the registration fees to support the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF). The mission of JDRF is to find a cure for diabetes and its complications through the support of research. Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease that strikes children and adults suddenly, and can be fatal. Until a cure is found, people with type 1 diabetes have to test their blood sugar and give themselves insulin, every day of their lives. And even with that intensive care, insulin is not a cure for diabetes, nor does it prevent its eventual and devastating complications, which may include kidney failure, blindness, heart disease, stroke, and amputation. |
