This weekend was amazing. I attended the 24 Hour Spin in Toronto. This was the most amazing event I have ever attended. Every hour there was a different band/group playing, great food and people. People….wow the most amazing people. I had a chance to meet other national riders and the people behind the scenes. I also had a chance to meet some strong people who have battled with cancer. They had so much postive energy. This gave me the motivation to keep jumping back on my rollers even though I was exhausted and in pain. I must have been seating up a storm because I am now covered in a full body rash. I want to thank my friends who joined me this weekend. I hope they all had fun and left the event feeling inspired.
Canada wins Gold. This is the first of many to come.
I had the opportunity to speak with the Georgetown Rotary Club this morning. They gave me their attention as I told them about the Sears National Kids cancer Ride. What a great group of people.
Now, I am sitting with anticipation waiting for the Olympic opening ceremonies. I can’t wait. This is the year. We WILL win an Olympic gold.
I just pushed it really hard on my rollers. It feels so good to hammer on the pedals.
