keeping you posted:  i AM riding in the Orange County American Diabetes Event with the TEAM RED (riders who have type 1 and 2 diabetes team).  We are in full swing of training as of this weekend.  My ride will be up to 50 miles.  Please join with me in donating (on my behalf) to the Team Red/American Diabetes TEAM - any amount either by check, MO, or credit card online.  THANK YOU in advance for your support. 

 

This is my first event in over 7 yrs.  Dusted off my bikes, bought new equipment for them/me - washed my cycling clothes.  and already been out the door early AM and after work - training.  As well, as work outs - our sponsor has graciously given us VIP with Golds Gym to train towards this even.  WOW - Full Sag support - food and water at the event as well as pick up.

You can join the inaugural Tour de Cure in Orange County and take the ride of your life.  Sign up for the Surf2Summit - Tour de Cure to get started today if you haven’t already! Here are a few training tips to get you started: • Pace yourself; increase your mileage and build endurance slowly • Stretch and hydrate before, during, and after rides to maintain flexibility and avoid fatigue, stiffness, and injuries. • Cross train with other cardiovascular workouts.

Through a $1 per-pack tax on cigarettes, Proposition 29 will deliver over $700 million every year for cancer research, smoking prevention and smoking cessation programs. The American Diabetes Association’s Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes, 2012, link smoking to an increased risk for cardiovascular disease, a major cause of death in individuals with diabetes.  In addition, there is some evidence that smoking may have a role in the development of type 2 diabetes.  The funds collected by Proposition 29 will be deposited directly into the California Cancer Research Life Sciences Innovation Trust Fund, and the money will be used to fund research related not only to cancer, but also cardiovascular disease.    Research of the Month ResearcherLeigh Perreault, MD- Endocrinology Researcher, University of Colorado–Denver School of Medicine, Aurora, Colorado FocusPrediabetes ADA Research FundingCareer Development Grant The biggest risk factor for type 2 diabetes is not obesity. Nor is it genetics, gender, race, or diet. It’s prediabetes, a collection of conditions that show up as high blood glucose levels. In America alone, 79 million people—a quarter of the entire population—have prediabetes. For doctors and public health experts, it’s a terrifying number. “Not everyone who has prediabetes gets to [type 2] diabetes, but 50 to 70 percent of them will,” says Leigh Perreault, a researcher at the University of Colorado–Denver School of Medicine. Yet recent research has shown that not all prediabetes is created equal. Though the results—high blood glucose and insulin resistance—look similar, the underlying causes are different. About a third of Americans with prediabetes, or about 27 million people, have impaired fasting glucose, something the American Diabetes Association (ADA) recognized as a prediabetic condition in 2004.
