On May 17th the Pella Triathlon Club will make their 4th trip across Iowa in support of Bethany Christian Services. The event is called AFRAID which stands for A Fast Ride Across Iowa in a Day. Wes Chaplin with the club tells KNIA/KRLS that the have gone west to east in the past, but this year they will start at the Missouri border and head north approximately 255 miles to the Minnesota border. Chaplin adds that if you want to make a donation, you can go to the Bethany Christian Services website and pledge per mile or make a lump contribution to the fundraiser.
