Changes in Latitudes
Posted by Sammy 10pm, Myrtle Beach SC
Well hello there! Where to begin? So I kind of (facebook aside) went into kind of an online recluse mode for a while. Felt so busy this past spring that I stopped with the online video games and really have used my computer less as far as anything other than checking FB and work. Anyhoo…I…Have…Returned. Such as I am. Im enjoying the last night of our vacation with my family in Myrtle Beach. Listening to the news guy carry on about the heat. Maybe Im getting old but I remember my parents telling me to go outside when it was hot, not to hide in the AC. But whatever. Things continue to go well with Steph’s treatments. She sees Dr. B on monday so I’d expect an update for everyone on here shortly after that. I got in some nice relaxation time and rides along the coast this week. Next week starts band camp, judging season, and the lead in to serious final training for this years Livestrong Challenge. 100 more miles of putting the Hilly in Philly. Yeah i know how dorky that sounds but it is soooo accurate. Think I’m kidding?
See that nice picturesque view? Now see those nice really big hills? Yeah it would be those hills I am referring to.
So Ill spend my 31st birthday (yes Im old now) riding 100 miles over 8,300 feet of climbing elevation and hopefully not getting rained on again. This is, of course as always, to raise funds for the Livestrong and in support of everyone fighting cancer and for their programs that offer support and advocacy around the world. If you can, please join me. You don’t have to ride or come to Philly (though the more the merrier
) Just donate whatever you are comfortable with. All money goes directly to Livestrong and makes a difference.Here’s the link:
