Empress Penguin! You're awesome and so inspirational - riding strong for such great reasons! I was thinking about you on my road bike ride yesterday, hoping you could draft off me for a little while. ;-) Now, the snow has arrived in SLC and I'm headed for an adventure in the mtns ... love it, love it! Find the little things along the way to bring a smile to your face and a warmth to your heart. The small joys can make any tough situation bearable! Hugs & strength to you! -Becky
Just writing to say hello and let you know your Florida Fan Club is thinking about you! I just hope you have a well-padded seat, 'cause that's a lot of miles in the saddle for skinny people--oops, LEAN people--like you and me! Thanks for the commentary on your blog about your training and mindset during the process. It's interesting and fun to read, and inspiring as always. Have a great time out there, Kid! Can't wait to hear the details of how you conquered the 508! "Hi" to Cathy.
Hi Lisa! A few thoughts... 1) My life verse is "Not by might, not by power, but by my Spirit", says the Lord. It will not be your strength, determination, or talent that will get you through these 508 miles. It will be the power of the Holy Spirit. And that power, my friend, is endless. 2) When you are too hot tomorrow, riding in the sun of California, stay cool by thinking of our weather back home. It is snowing and sticking on the ground. Visualize my throwing a snowball at you! 3) You inspire so many people, including me. You go get 'em girl!
Lisa, I just got back from Vegas and am thinking about you and praying all is well! Brian and I had fun celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary. I am so proud of you (as always) and know you will make it through the race even though your back is killing you. I know your motto of "Never Quit" is running through your head continually now. I pray you will take care of yourself and know my whole family is remembering you in our prayers. You are amazing! You go girl! God Speed and God Bless! I will see you soon, Love ya, Your Sis-Julie
Hi from Bangkok, Lisa! Just wanted to let you know that I am checking in and you look great! I'll be thinking of you as you keep going. I know you'll finish strong.
As the new day/morning comes for you guys out there....
"Days up and down they come like rain on a conga drum forget most, remember some but don't turn none away. Everything is not enough nothing is too much to bear where you been is good and gone all you keep's the getting there. To live is to fly low and high so shake the dust off of your wings and the sleep out of your eyes."---Cowboy Junkies
Hi Lisa - Ben came out to see you at the Trona checkpoint - but somehow missed you. We are sending prayers your way! Stay focused and strong. Love and hugs - Ben and Denise Jones
