I can do it — Amey Thompson pushes her way over the hill at the BMX track during the Race for Life event on Saturday, which raised $886 for the B.C. Children’s Hospital. The event has been taking place since 1981 when an 11-year-old BMX racer from the U.S. died from leukemia. In that time, BMX riders have raised $3.6 million in support of leukemia research.
