Almost at 2,000 KM and $4,500

I'm closing in on 2,000 km this week, and my fundraising has almost reached $4,500.  My heart is filled with thankfulness for a healthy body, excellent training partners (let's hear it for the Velodonnas), and generous supporters.  I'm actually finalizing packing lists and putting fresh laundry aside for August 3rd departure. I'll have a rest week at Grundy Lake with the family next week; we'll ride shorter distances in the mornings (to the coffee shop), and lounge around.  My body is ready for the rest, and the one week break from teaching fitness classes will allow my muscles to fully recharge
