Yesterday I sent out a message announcing this blog, and already I have received three donations to Big Ride Alaska. Thanks to extremely generous contributions from translator Anne Vincent, interpreter Julie Byron and ride-director extraordinaire Jeff Schlieper, my total jumped overnight to $3,908.48 putting me in first place for now!
This blogging thing is more fun than I thought it would be! And I love how fundraising keeps me connected to friends and collegues I might otherwise not hear from for years.

How exciting!! I hope the climbing bootcamp is working you hard! :)
Finally a comment! I'll write something about my "remedial" hill-climbing bootcamp after my class tonight if I can drag myself to the computer.
I'm dying to hear about what diabolical things they have you doing for hill-climbing bootcamp! Do tell!!
Last night was a good workout, but it was actually less diabolical than usual. That is not to say that it did not resemble one of Dante's circles of hell: We spent the evening going round and round one circuit practicing sprinting up a short steep incline and cornering on the descent. I loved it! I'll post more detals about these classes as soon as I have a chance.
