My new goal

No response, Mar 09, 2009

“I hope we find a cure for every major disease. I’m tired of walking 5k.” - Daniel Tosh, comedian

I’ve decided to challenge myself and will ride in the MS150 charity bike ride this May. I figured that if I’m going to take on a new fitness goal, I may as well raise money to help find a cure for a major disease like Multiple Sclerosis (MS).

What is the MS150?
Basically, I’m riding my road bike 150 miles in two days to raise money to help find a cure for the disease. I have 2 months to prepare and am quite serious about training to reduce the risk of making a fool of myself.

Why am I doing this?
1. A great cause.
2. I’ve never been in any sort of charity race. Ever. I usually just volunteer to help these races.
3. I turn 30 years old in August and would like the fitness challenge to prove I’m not an old man.
4. What else am I going to do on a random May weekend?

Feel free to donate to my goal if you’re feeling spunky.
