    The 100 degree plus heat has been a real challenge this last week. I rode a difficult 30 miles today to finish my goal!! I will ride tomorrow to get a few extra miles. It would mean a great deal if I could raise some more for these kids and their families.

    Reached halfway today!!! Legs feel strong. Shoulders and neck are sore. I am thinking about the purpose of this ride. Kids should never have to struggle and fight like these kids do every day. They are heroically strong and brave!!

    Today was a difficult day. Lots going on business wise and feeling emotionally drained. The bike ride was a challenge to start. But, then, it was energizing!! My longest ride this year and I feel better now then before I started. Big ups to everyone keeping on keeping on. I appreciate all the support I have been receiving.

    I didn't have time to ride this morning before work. It was much harder to get myself to ride in the afternoon. However, physically, I felt better than I expected. This will be an interesting challenge.

    Today, the ride was a challenge. I am sore from yesterday and didn't feel like I could ride as far as yesterday. Once I started, I actually started to feel really good. I focused on my breathing and really breathing deeply. I thought of why I am riding and the miles quickly passed. Now, I am exhausted and exhilarated. Back at it tomorrow...
