I'm about to post top 10 Overall and Individual Race Results from our Bike to Benefit TriForAmani on February 26 hosted by Fitness For Life...... but bare with me for a moment.
Words cannot express how I feel to have received such encouragement and support from the riders, the staff at Fitness For Life, and also those who didn't ride and supported anyway! This was not about me, but about helping babies in Kenya who might not otherwise have a chance at even health- or better yet family!- things that we might take for granted on a daily basis. Yet I feel successful and loved, and it rocks. So I'll go back to basics and say THANK YOU to you all who believed in me and something I feel is so important. I am truly humbled and grateful, not to mention the 5 BABIES who will have that chance thanks to a fabulous, FUN DAY!
Without further hesitation..... here are the results!
