When I think about the ride I am training for, the AMBBR 09 - Lake Tahoe Century, I think of hills. The 800 foot climb through the switchbacks on the way up to Emerald Bay and the 1000 foot 9 mile pull up to Spooner seem to be the toughest. But there is another one, and thanks to the support and generosity of my friends and colleagues I am over the top of that first critical hill!
About 2 hours ago my son Daniel and my future (hopefully) daughter in law Becky made the donation to my fundraising page that put me over the $4800 minimum goal required to be part of the team.
My personal goal is to raise as much as WE can for this effort to fight Blood Cancers, and I hope that those of you who have not had the chance yet to make a donation still do so. No matter how big the hills are that I face, or have faced during my own journey with leukemia, blood cancers are the biggest hill of all. That summit is still in the distance, and we won't cross it until we have eliminated them all!
Thank you all for supporting me both through this and through my fight. Words can not begin to express how much your friendship and support have meant to me!
