Our final event of the Series is held in conjunction with the Ride for the Roses weekend. On Saturday, October 15 enjoy a 5K run/walk through Austin. Then on Sunday, October 16, choose from one of our multi-distance bike rides ranging from 10–90 miles. Our post-event party is a great way to celebrate all the miles put in training, all the hard work put into fundraising and the end to another great Series.
I plan on walking the 5k and I would like to try to participate in the bike ride, even if I can only pedal 10 miles. The best news of all is that a good friend has told me she will come down and push me in a wheel chair, if need be, so we can do this together. I hope that she can make it. We used to be workout buddies, did a few triathlons in Oregon and Washington, and she was there when my 3rd baby was born.
She is also a cancer survivor.
We lost touch a few years ago and found each other again earlier this year. How fitting to have a reunion participating in an event that helps cancer patients, survivors and caretakers.
