My Story

1 Aug 2024

This August, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!

Why? Because right now, over 1,700 children are diagnosed with cancer every year, and it's the biggest killer of children from disease in Canada.

Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.

So I am raising funds through my challenge to help these kids and support SickKids Foundation to allow them to continue their work in developing treatments and finding a cure for childhood cancer.

Please support me by making a donation to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.

Your support will change little lives.

Thank you.

Holly

My Challenge

    We finished the challenge with an easy ride close to home. Was nice to get out there together again. We were scared at one point during the challenge that we would be short. Illness, travel, and bad weather made us work a bit harder on a few days. See you next year!!

    Whenever I have an appointment that takes me to a different part of the city I search out a hiking or biking path. Today was Costco day and I always take time to wander down a paved multi-use path off the parking lot. After this ride I have just a few kms to go.

    Ken is a bit behind because work gets in the way. But he jumped on the bike after work and we will both finish up our kms on the next ride.

    Today I decided on a shorter ride to pick up things from the local mall. Human error made me clear the route I was recording on the GCC app. I did have my Garmin going so I adjusted the mileage. Happy I did a short ride today.

    Today’s ride was motivated by errands. I dropped a book off to a friend and decided to do a loop. Worked out great! And I inadvertently cycled by a favourite smoked meat shop.

    Props to Ken for getting in an after work ride in the wind.

    I am feeling the pressure from both the looming end of month and Ken a few rides ahead. I took advantage of the cooler weather and slight breeze that pushed me home.

    Still at the lake with hot weather warnings but Ken still logged some kms. He came back to base and jumped in the water with his riding clothes on. We are both overwhelmed by all of the donations you all gave. We qualified for jerseys this year.

    We both cycled at the same time today. I must have felt pressure bc I peddled faster with Ken following me.

    We decided to mix some exploring with cycling. Rented a quad cycle and then two regular bikes to explore Toronto islands.

    We missed another day due to weather but planned some in door cycling while we are away. Not what we signed on for but it gets us our mileage while on the road.

    The 13 and 14 were bad weather days. We are starting to feel the pressure of lost cycling days. Now we need to prioritize our cycling. We both decided to cycle Henderson. I cycled out. Kenn bright a vehicle which I then drove home while he peddled home. Not as much fun as peddling together but a great way to go further distances.

    I dropped the truck to get new tires. Hopped on my bike and cycled the Transcona trail. Then an evening ride to visit family.

    Ken is feeling like he needs a long ride today. I dropped him off on Henderson and he cycled into the city. I cycled to meet him for some socializing. It’s great when we can use our bike to travel to see family and friends.

    Sadly Holly has had a summer cold take over. No ride today. Ken got out for a solo ride. He said ‘I am not going near the big hill by the dam.’ He came back bragging about climbing the big hill by the dam. Talk about dedication. Attacking the hills while using modified footwear to overcome the limitations of an injured toe.

    We packed our bikes in the truck and took them with us camping. What could go wrong with that plan?!?! Camping in a valley where there are no flat roads. That is what could go wrong. Two middle aged, slightly out of shape people trying to cycle like we know what we are doing.
