I rode my bike 41.1 miles at Tour de Cure Chicagoland yesterday, one of the premier fundraising events of the American Diabetes Association. I fell over twice, got poop-bombed by a bird, and got my particles accelerated riding through Fermiland's beautiful prairie campus.

I hurt everywhere, I've got an amazing variety of bruises, and my bike is covered with mud. I rode my heart out and cheered myself hoarse for other diabetic Red Riders like me, and for everybody on Team Red Chicago.

It. Was. Awesome.

Fundraising for the event ends July 15, so there's still time to help me #fightdiabetes. I've raised $2207.00 so far, hoping to reach my goal of $2900.00 by then. Every little bit helps to #fightdiabetes!
