The final miles. With more to come this October

I’m so thankful the dashboard his remaining open for the month of October so that I am able to reach my goal and exceed my goal whether beyond the trails outside in the crispy fall weather or at home and my beautiful stationary bike thanks for riding with me more and more to come stay blessed stay thankful walk with intention and breathe with purpose

Final stretch. Going to finish my last few mills at home

I luckily had the day off and was able to go for a long ride. 32 miles. If I can get a few extra miles in my stationary bike I’ll make my goal on miles. But if not, I’m just grateful I was able to go as far as I did and help with what I’ve done by doing what I love. This was another great year

Thanks for riding with me

Morning burst of energy

Same ol’ same ol’ getting my final miles in at home. Not able to track in the app with out moving in distance. Short and sweet 10 miles ride. Final stretch

Stationary bike

Getting my miles in at home. The final stretch to reaching my mile goal 🚴I wasn’t able to track my miles in the app due to not “moving distance” for my miles. But luckily my bike tracks the miles

Attempted a double marathon

I burnt out trying to get 52 miles but it was dark rainy and lots of mooose I’m Alaska this time of year. Been doubling down at the gym after my morning rides. Even if I don’t hit my mile goal. Im having fun doing what I love with a little extra passion behind each peddle. With the excessive rain and work I’m just glad I’m able to give back even a little and do so with my passion for cycling. Thanks for riding with me

Wet and muddy in Alaska

Half a ride today. 12.5 miles. I rode my fav trails offside for some extra fun. I will try and remember to log rides though the app next ride

Morning station and ride

With work and the Cold Alaska mornings, I’m grateful for my stationary bike to get my miles in at home out of the frosty cold dark fall days

Circle ⭕️ round and round

I feel so silly for not teaching all my rides this season properly. I forget to turn on the tracker for GCC and left my Fitbit on the charger but was able to do the circle from town to town down bridge access this morning which equals 21-22 miles. I had gone on a few short rides the last few days as well, just 3-4 miles a hand full of time as well I will calculate and add later. Because of work, I’ve only gone on short rides this week. 3 days or 3-4 miles so I’ll manually enter approximately 9 miles for those as well. And try to be more mindful of tracking on the GCC app

Stationary bike

Due to the weather and prior engagement, I’m very pleased to have a stationary bike so I’m able to get my miles in at home.

Thanks for riding with me

Short ride after work

I keep forgetting to track my miles on the GCC app and my Fitbit wasn’t logged into fitness tracker and didn’t get my miles but it was about 13 and 2/3 miles but to stay fair I logged 12 because though I know the mile markers I don’t want to over estimate either.

Just a short sweet ride.

A short sweet ride while the weather was nice today. Luckily I caught the sun before the beautiful thunder and rain came. I keep forgetting to Track my rides in this app but luckily my Fitbit tracks my rides as a back up!

Home ride on a rainy day

With the fall rain in Alaska 🍁 🌧️ I’m very grateful to have my stationary bike to get my miles in. It always surprises me the difference in home ride vs peddle bike. On my peddle bike, I can easily get gwt 10+ miles in 50min-an hour without breaking a sweat. But on my stationary bike, it takes 10x the effort and more time. I love the difference. Hopefully we get a clearing and the skies clear up for today

Bike repairs

Today I planned on a 45 miles ride but because I didn’t pack properly, I wasn’t prepared for mishaps. I had tightened everything before leaving this morning but after 37 miles I lost a screw for my kick stand and didn’t have anything to tie it up. And had to calll for a ride home. Determined to get at least 40 miles in today I decided to take the kick stand off at home and go for another short ride around town to enjoy the sun and finished my ride. Very determined for a personal best this season. Let’s gear up and get closer to 60 miles next time. But next time, I’ll remember to bring tools. I’m lucky it didn’t happen to far away as I was 20+ miles out of town and thought I was technically only 7 miles from home, I was taking the long way to get more miles. It was in fact the perfect break I needed after riding through 2 rain storms and reaching my tired point before getting back on.

Thanks for riding with me

Thank you all

I would like to thank everyone who has supported my ride in the last 3 years. Sincerely, every penny and every prayer greatly impacts a child’s life. It is such a honor to put a little every passion behind each peddle and know, we’re making a difference in so many precious lives. I am also proud to say the sweet angel I’m riding for is now in remission and I am so overwhelmingly happy for her and her family. Just the thought makes my eyes swell with tears. I’ve known many to battle with cancer and not every care ends so happily and every person ridding is giving millions of family hope for the future. Thank you for riding with me.

Time to go play in the rain and get a little muddy for ride #2, day two 🌧️ 🚴 💕

Forgot to track first ride in app

Yesterday I went for a very short ride and forgot to track in the GCC app but luckily my Fitbit documented the ride.
