For some crazy reason, I've signed up for the 2025 Great Cycle Challenge and will be riding this September to fight kids' cancer!

My goal is to pedal 100 miles throughout the month (gulp).

It won't be easy, it will take over my life. Hmmm, I probably should have thought a bit more about what I was getting myself into. :)

But I'm taking on this challenge for one reason... to kick cancer's butt!

Because cancer is the largest killer of children from disease in the United States - 38 kids die every week.

Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.

Cancer has taken too many young lives and robbed too many kids of their childhood. And frankly, it needs to be taught a lesson. So I'm riding this September to give cancer a good old-fashioned butt-kicking and give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.

Please support my craziness by making a donation through my personal fundraising page:

All funds raised will support Children's Cancer Research Fund to continue their work to develop innovative treatments and find a cure for childhood cancer to save little lives.

Thanks for your support, and wish me luck (I'll need it).

Help me reach my goal : ) Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers.
