3000 MILES TO A CURE
Facing her sister’s terminal cancer, cyclist Maria Parker fought back by undertaking the 3,000 mile race of a lifetime.
An accident that destroyed equipment and devastated rider and crew could not stop the team. She rode on to the greatest comeback in the world’s toughest race.
This is a story about hope in the face of terminal illness and Maria Parker's incredible 2013 Race Across America. It is about refusing to accept impossible in toughest race.
100% of ticket sale revenue funds brain cancer research through 3000 Miles to a Cure.
The mission of 3000 Miles to a Cure is to end brain cancer by raising funds for research, extending an open invitation to unite in hope and action for the cure.
