Beyond Winning: A Team With a Message About Health

Team Type 1I came across a really interesting article in the Wall Street Journal today about Team Type 1, a cycling team made up of Type I diabetics. The story was truly inspirational, these guys are amazing. Go Team Type 1!


The team is comprised of inspirational cyclists, all people with Type 1(Juvenile) Diabetes. Last year, they won the 3,052 mile Race Across America (RAAM) in the eight-person corporate category. Their blood sugar is monitored by FreeStyle Lite. They will be putting Apidra in OmniPod wireless Insulin pumps, using AMYLIN products and all ride on Specialized Bikes.
