For those that didn't know, I participated in the Ride To Conquer Cancer on June 15th/16th. It is an annual event, over 2 days, from Vancouver to Seattle.
I must say that despite the fatique, and sore muscles, it was one of the most amazing experiences I have ever had.
Over 240km, about 16 hours of riding, amongst 2,642 riders.
People that were strangers only a day earlier, giving each other words of encouragement (especially up those nasty hills!)…and the inspiring yellow-flag riders….indicating that they are cancer survivors themselves!
I am proud to say I raised $2,630. Our CTV team of 47 strong, raised $154,598.33 And in total The 2013 Ride To Conquer Cancer raised $10.4 million dollars for Cancer Research.
So...if you need me…I’ll be in the hot tub !
