The Mid Atlantic Chapter of the National MS Society has done it again.  This is my third year participating in this event and as always it was pleasure. The route was great and the support provided by the staff and volunteers was second to none. I was only able to ride on Sunday this year, but I did manage the 100 mile route.

It is never to late to make a donation for this organization. For now my Participant Page is still active.  Later you can donate here.

In 43 minutes I made 2 loops taking a few minutes to stop and look at the Cox Ferry Lake Recreational Area.  It was a great workout compared to riding on the road.

I’m not sure about cycling through this area with the little ones, but I am looking forward to walking the trails with them.

No fancy bikes just an old mountain bike and a beach cruiser. I do believe I will be looking for a new bike for Tabitha.
We don’t get to see much change in elevation, but the headwinds would make you feel like you were in the mountains. It was cold this year and the winds were horrible. I still believe that any day on the bike is a good day.

It is Monday, the first day of the first week of a new year.

We are starting to get back into our routine with school, exercise and life in general. We ended the old year with friends and started the new year with family. Both were great celebrations and we have the pictures to prove it.



We are getting serious about fitness again. I have to climb on the scales at work on the 16th. I have registered Tabitha and I for a 5k in February as well as a 32 mile bike ride. We are looking at the Cooper River Bridge run and a 10k in Atlanta for later this year. I also plan to participate in the River City Ride which is a part of the Around the Fourth and another MS Ride.

We will continue to run and I may try to grab an indoor trainer later this year.  I want to ride at least 1500 miles next year and run 300 miles.  That seems like a reasonable goal (My boss would be proud).

I still can’t keep up with Tabitha, but I feel better after running tonight.  I managed to cover 2.6 miles in 42 minutes.  Today has been a busy day.  We started with a 9.1 mile bike ride and we both managed to run on the treadmill before bed.  I’m looking foward to a good night sleep and I feel sure we will be up early with the little ones.  Jessie is on stage with The Big House in the morning so we will have to be on the road early.

I would like to start by saying that the hills hurt, but it wasn’t that bad. We peddled 83 mile in 7 hours and 22 minutes. That time included rest stops and two flat tires. We were blessed with cool weather and very little rain which made for an enjoyable ride.

If anyone would like to make a donation there is still time. It looks like we will be doing 80 miles in the rain on Saturday to raise money and awareness for the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. (We are talking bicycles).

Have a great weekend.

This is the Saturday Route for the 2008 Bike MS Ride in our area. I hope to make it another 40 or 67 miles on Sunday. We’ll have to see how I feel after 80 miles on Saturday.
