I Committed to Riding the 2023 AIDS/Lifecycle
Last year, I met the South Bay Blaze team, who every year train for the AIDS Lifecycle weeklong ride from San Francisco to Los Angeles.
As I learned about the cause, the good the organization does with the funds they raise, and the ride itself, I decided to sign up for the 2023 ride.
After a little break with graduations, travel and vacations in May, I’ve been riding quite regularly over the summer. I changed my diet and even put alcohol back in the cupboard for a few months. I am getting in fighting shape for this ride.
The scariest part is the fundraising. I have never done it. As I get my head around it, I am realizing I should have taken on some sort of fundraising much earlier. It makes you think about the people you haven’t been in touch with as much. Regardless, it will be challenge to get to the $3,500. I am getting warmed up.
