Seagull Century! Here I come!

Sorry I haven't written for a while. To be honest, I've been feeling a little sorry for myself and trying to make sense of my new situation - two Cardiac stents and a new sense of vulnerability. But, I'm over that for now. :)

All is not lost! Yes, I'm afraid America's Most Beautiful Bike Ride around Lake Tahoe is not in the cards for me this year. Maybe next year. But, Team in Training is allowing me to transfer most of my funds and my event selection to the Seagull Century Ride. The ride is in Maryland on October 15th. This should give me plenty of time to train and to convince the Cardiologist that this is the best thing for me to do. The course is relatively flat and at sea level. A better venue for me right now than mile-high Lake Tahoe with a course that involves a number of very challenging hills. I'm psyched!

Go Team!!
