Prep Work is Over

After 6 months of training and some last minute weight loss, I can say that I feel less prepared for the ride than in any of the three previous efforts. With that said, nothing will stop me from turning over the pedals. I will ride evey mile to honor and memorialize those that have endured so much more than I can imagine.

One of the last things I do in preparation is to make the magnets that go on our van and write the names on my arm warmers. These are reminders of who and what I am riding for.
