My Story

11 Aug 2025

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

Why? Because right now, cancer is the biggest killer of children from disease in the United States. Over 15,700 children are diagnosed every year, and sadly, 38 children die of cancer every week.

Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.

So I am raising funds through my challenge to help these kids and support Children's Cancer Research Fund to allow them to continue their work to develop lifesaving treatments and find 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.

Here's my personal impact over 6 years to fight kids' cancer and save little lives.

  • 1st ride of 2025
    2 Sep 2025

    Today, September 1, 2025. I rode 11 miles. I had planned on going further but at about mile five there was a huge viaduct. With my asthma it was pretty tricky. I geared down to first gear of my 21 gears and just kept saying to myself I can do this, you got this, keep going, don’t give up, you’re almost there, just a little further, I made it.! But it took me nearly 4 miles after that to catch my breath. I had to stop at one point and take off my jacket and just breathe. there was rough, making it the 7 miles back. But I did it. Now I feel like bragging that I went 11 miles. I see all the other post of people who’s gone 20 and 30 miles and and more but that’s OK. I’ve started my part. And I’m hoping to reach 100.

  • My 6th year riding for GCC!
    31 Aug 2025

    My ride starts tomorrow. I’m very excited and a little worried. I’m hoping I can complete the hundred miles and maybe even plus this year. I know it’s not gonna be easy because of my continually increasing asthma. But I’m very determined and dedicated. I’m pretty excited about the support and the donations that I’ve received so far.

    I had my bike and cleaned and tuned last week. And I took it out for a spin yesterday. I went over 7 1/2 miles on my first ride of the year. I was very pleased and surprised that it didn’t wear me out at all . I will have to start each morning by getting up at five so I can be on my bike by 5:45. So then I can make it back to work in time by 9:45.
