2017 Warrior 100K
Event
October 07, 2017
5:00 am - 7:00 pm
The W100K, part of the Bush Institute’s Military Service Initiative, showcases the courage, commitment, and resilience of these warriors and underscores the importance of sports as part of the rehabilitation process for our men and women injured on the front lines. This year’s bike ride honors alumni of Team 43 who have participated in previous W100K rides and highlight the work of the Bush Institute’s Warrior Wellness Alliance.
Many of the riders in this year’s event are featured in President Bush’s book and corresponding exhibit currently at the George W. Bush Presidential Center, Portraits of Courage: A Commander-in-Chief’s Tribute to America’s Warriors.
To help more veterans access high-quality care and reduce stigmas associated with the invisible wounds of war, the Bush Institute this year announced the Warrior Wellness Alliance, linking peer-to-peer veteran networks like Team 43 with best-in-class health care providers.
