Will I Break the Curse??

I‘m going to try again…. I have tried to train for a century ride 3 times.

The first time — I found out I was pregnant a week before the ride.
The second time – I got caught in BAD traffic and never made it there
The last time — my sea level lungs were no match for the mountains of Santa Fe.

Recently, I got an email looking for mentors for Team in Training. Mentors are basically volunteers that support the participants who are raising money to participate in a Team in Training Ride. Although I am a bad rider — I’m a great mentor. I really enjoy helping people to reach their goals. I even made a web page to help people out — http://squidoo.com/tntfundraising. I am already in awe of “my” mentees this season — 1 is on oxygen — 2 are trying to raise nearly $6,000 by the end of the summer — wow!

So, I’m dusting off my bike and the first ride is Saturday. 10 miles or so. I haven’t been on my bike in a year — but it will be fine… I will break the curse this time.
