Gathering Steam
January is a challenging month to train. It rains in Northern California. There are birthdays and wedding anniversaries. There is an all company weeklong gathering.
And yet, I was able to get a few Saturday rides in, in between the rain and spun indoors with Mary. I spent plenty of time in the pool. And, I got my new (used) road bike fitted.
ALC 2025 is becoming more real. I went to the NorCal Expo and saw so many excited faces. This is no longer a next year endeavor. This is in a few months! Argh. I need to get more out on the bike. May the weather gods be benevolent.
Fundraising Update
I’ve raised $2,993, thanks to donations from friends and some compassionate anonymous angels. Thank you!
In terms of putting that on the ALC course: I made it out of Santa Maria and meet up again with the Pacific Ocean in Ventura. With a little push, I’ll make it around Point Dume to the Santa Monica finish line.
