Hi everybody,
Yes, you heard me right. At 38 years old, I am learning to ride a bike. Insane, I know. I am participating in Team in Training to help raise money for Leukemia and Lymphoma research. I have decided to compete in the Capital of Texas Triathlon on May 25, 2008. I could have chosen the 1/2 or full marathon, neither of which contains a cycling component, but it seemed appropriate that I fight to overcome my fear of the bike while raising money for people who are fighting for their lives. It sort of puts my fear in perspective. This is an olympic length event. Doing the sprint seemed like taking the easy way out.
I have purchased a road bike. I have received my first war wounds. I am committed to doing this, even though I start to hyperventilate whenever I take the bike out of the garage. I hope that you guys will help me to reach my goal of $4,300. It is for such a good cause.
