Back on the 21st of November, I introduced you to Team Triabetes and told you about PureFit’s support of this inspiring organization. Today I’d like to introduce you to IronKIDz, an Insulindependence program conducted in affiliation with Team Triabetes.

Insulindependence is a worldwide project aimed at changing diabetic lives through a unique blend of mentored fitness, adventure travel, education and Web-based community support, and is another one of the organizations PureFit intends on supporting and working with in 2009.

For more information on the IronKIDz program, check out the video below (and my apologies in advance if it makes you cry):

Thanks for sharing, PureFit!

We’re really proud of these kids, and couldn’t do it without help from our partners. Looking forward to giving it another go in 2009…

Thank you PureFit! These young men and women are OVERCOMING some significant challenges that each faces on a daily basis. Rather than cower in the face of these challenges, they are taking control of their lives and their health. Your support is helping change their lives for the better, so I thank you for helping improve our communities… awesome!

Rob, Congratulations for your success with the Purefit organization. WE all have enjoyed the product use over the year and look forward to another year of use and promoting a great product. I certainly need you to pace me out in the Carlsbad 1/2 marathon. Just coming off a few injuries but the leg feels rather good now. Cheers and thanks again,
Bill Carlson

Thanks Robb, It’s support like this from you that is helping projects like Ironkidz happen.

ABOUT AUTHOR

Welcome to the PureFit Blog! I'm Robb Dorf, founder and CEO of PureFit, Inc., an Irvine, California-based company I started in the summer of 2000 dedicated to making the highest quality, all-natural, gluten-free, 40/30/30 nutrition bars on the planet.

Like many people I know, I'm health conscious and concerned about what I eat. The first-hand knowledge I've gained over the years (in the process of training for and competing in various athletic competitions) has proven to be invaluable in my pursuit of the ideal nutrition bar.

Personally, I grew up in Sylvania, Ohio, and started long-distance running at the ripe age of 12. To this day, you can find me running, biking, hiking, or doing something else related to human-powered outdoor recreation on nearly a daily basis.

Here, on the PureFit Blog, you can read all about what's going on at our little company and what we think about the state of the nutrition bar industry and the world we live in, as well as leave a comment or two of your own.
