Episode 74: Under the wire!

Just made it.  AM is brushing his teeth and we are about to go to bed, but I made it, just in time to share this blog post with you all! Yay!

Today I'm writing about races.  I haven't, nor will I be able to, run a race any time soon.  Maybe in the next year or so, after I've lost some weight, but my doctor and my knees agree that I am not ready for any type of marathon or even a 5k.  However, I have close friends who do these things, and I am in awe of them. In fact, two of them participated in Tour de Cure.  I am so impressed with them. They biked today for 64 miles (correct me if I'm wrong, guys) to help support and raise funds for Diabetes Awareness.  Link site for Tour de Cure.  I think all causes are worthy in some way, and say a lot about what our government really wants to fund, but this isn't the place for that.  This is the place to celebrate what my friends accomplished and how wonderful they are for helping to create hope in people who suffer from a disease that affects many people's lives.

Well done guys, well done.

Off to bed!

Love and Lollipops,

P.S Edited to make the number right! I was off by 18 miles.. OMIPU! I can't even imagine doing just 18!  64 sounds crazy!!
