It was a bit cold, but a great event!
WOW!!! That's really, really impressive!!!!!!!

I felt awful all day - woke up with an awful cold, achy body, congested lungs, and wanted to quit right at the beginning after the 3 laps on the track. My dear, dear BF convinced me to just go for a bike ride - give up our goal, but just go for a ride instead. So, we piddled around, took long breaks, tried to stay warm. I ended up with 203 miles. Considering I was aiming for 370 (last year I did 344 miles in 24-hours, so it was well within my reach) well, I'm really disappointed, but it was fun, and I'll have something to look forward to next year!

I have to send out a huge special thanks to our very own Kacie!!! She didn't know me before this event, yet she offered to help us out, and on race day, she was so kind, so helpful, asking if we needed anything each and every lap. If I had been able to ride my ride, it would have been her help that got me to my goal. I couldn't have done it without her. And without her steady supply of tissues! Kacie, you're the best!!!!!
