Hot Pursuit

Hot Pursuit will take ultra-marathon cyclist Arvid Loewen from White Rock, BC, to Winnipeg, MB, in under 5 days.

Think that's tough?

He'll be chased by relay teams leaving White Rock only 24 hours behind him. Four members of the Winnipeg Police Service and five professors/alumni from Canadian Mennonite University will race after him in the ultimate HOT PURSUIT. 

Along the way, a few others will be competing, including a team of four "grannies" relaying from Calgary to Winnipeg.

Arvid's ride is in support of Mully Children's Family, a dynamic street-rescue orphanage in Kenya, Africa. The Winnipeg Police are raising funds for Children's Wish Foundation. The Canadian Mennonite University team is raising funds to bring international students to their school. 

Together, they make up HOT PURSUIT 2010.

'Nuff said. I'm off to fetch those KFC coupons from the recycling bin.
