Help My Hurt continues to follow Kristin Armstrong’s ride to the Olympics
As we get closer to the Olympics, cyclist Kristin Armstrong is continuing her ride to Beijing. We’ve been following Kristin because she is a great example of how some people are able to live with a disease like osteoarthritis. While not everyone can manage to achieve the 
level of athleticism that she has when healthy, even fewer can do so when they have a disease that causes chronic pain and disability.
On June 5, Kristin raced in the Commerce Bank Reading Classic, where she placed 5th. Three days later, on June 8th, she raced in the Commerce Bank Liberty Classic; unfortunately, not one of her better races. She finished number 45.
After Kristin finishes this staged race Nature Valley Stage Race, she gets a bit of a break as her next race is on July 10 so let’s cheer her on! Currently, she’s at number 22 after 3 days.
