50 Just Keeps Getting Closer...
Bring It!!!
I have 2 months before I turn 50 and I have been listening to everyone’s
suggestions about how to celebrate, commemorate and survive this “incredible”
benchmark. There are many people who say, “oh, it’s just another day” while
others keep their heads down and pray it passes quietly. Others ignore it
completely and still others go big. My sister went to Hawaii and celebrated
Hawaii 50! Great idea! I haven’t come up with a cool theme, title or focus but
I have decided 2 things!
1. I am going to celebrate my 50th birthday BIG
in honor of those people who will never have the chance to celebrate their 50th
and
For right now my focus is on coordinating and
completing the nearly 500 miles of Ride the Rockies with John, Nicole, Michele,
Nancy, Keith and Barry and our crew of Margaret, Kevin, Priscilla and the Davis
Phinney Foundation Tribe! We are going to have a fabulous trip and I can't wait
to start! Collectively we have raised $20,000 for the foundation and we
have probably ridden our bikes 20,000 miles to get ready for the ride! I am so
proud of my friends who have made the time and sacrificed so much in order to
make next week a fun and viable adventure!
I am going to blog a bit every day after we ride
so we can share our adventures! The photos I have included with this post are
shots from our training!
