EVENT DETAILS
On September 11, 2010, celebrities, athletes, individuals with intellectual disabilities, and people just like you, will take the challenge, and come together on bike and on foot to make a difference and change lives. It's much more than a ride, a run, or a walk. With VIP treatment along the way, and a private concert by British pop star Natasha Bedingfield, gourmet BBQ and party at the finish, the Audi Best Buddies Challenge is an experience of a lifetime.

CYCLE  Riders choose from four options for distance: 100 Miles, 62 Miles, 35 Miles or 15 Miles. No matter what distance you choose, you'll enjoy magnificent views biking along the Pacific Coast Highway route, fully supported from Carmel all the way to San Simeon. Open to all ages and abilities.

RUN/WALK  For those who do not wish to ride, you can still join in the fun at our 5k run and 3k walk led by Olympic gold medalist Carl Lewis at the finish area alongside the beach in San Simeon!

CELEBRATE  With a gourmet BBQ, private concert by Natasha Bedingfield, and celebrating on the Hearst Ranch, what could be a better way to toast to your accomplishments and to this important cause!

SUPPORT   The Challenge is about changing lives. As a participant in the event, you'll raise important funds for Best Buddies programs to help individuals living with intellectual disabilities and you'll be assisted every step of the way with a Coach and a host of tools to insure you reach your goals.
