Diabetes Spin for Fitness Recap...


I just happen to know some of the best people in the world!!! I want to start this post by saying Thank You to everyone who participated yesterday in the Diabetes Spin for Fitness helping to raise awareness and funds for the Canadian Diabetes Association, and promote Fitness by doing a 6 hour spin class.

Team Will managed to raise $927.75...you guys rock...
Amy, Bethea, Raymond, Angie, Shelly, Adriana, Gaby, Adam, Jacob, Leslie, Ruben, and Henry. Thanks to each of you, I definately couldn't have done it without you!!!

Team Brock consisted of Brock, Emily, Rebecca, Rene, Rene's daughter, Anne, Grace, 2 people I think came off the street and joined at the last minute, and perhaps some other people that I may have forgotten. I have no idea how much money Team Brock raised, but I'm sure he'll post it when he gets up.

Also, big thanks to Dad, Grandma C, Luis, Joy, Claire, Eric, and Friend of Eric for comming out at various times throughout the day Just to cheer us on...and a special thanks to our honorary coach Ella (Jacob and Leslie's daughter) who kept us smiling all day!!!

It was a great day with lot of sore asses and muscles, but it was fun, and we raised some money and kicked some ass!!! Personally I spend about 3.5 hours total on a bike and I think that was pretty much the average for the team!

I'm back to running today, but wanted to let you know about the spin event yesterday...amazing!!!

Note on picture: You get a little hungry after being on a bike for so long, so I decided to eat Brock's thumb....he got a really nice prostetic one to replace it.

I was wondering why Brock was unable/unwilling to give me a "thumbs up." Now I know.
