Happy Groundhog day! Well, Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow forecasting 6 more weeks of winter but I saw 5.13 more miles on my Garmin, forecasting the 200 mile mark in my grasp! The sickness that had a hold on me like a chimp holding onto Dr. Goodall has finally eased up and I am feeling the energy return to my legs!
Thanks for bearing with my recovery but I am ready for the long haul with some strong antibodies in my blood stream now. If you haven't been sick yet, take care of yourself, this is a brutal strain that knocks you out for at least 2-3 days from my and many of my colleagues' experience.
I look forward to hitting Mission Bay fairly hard this weekend to get the mileage going again. I have to say that I am so excited to see all the wonderful donations so far, way more than I expected for the month of January when everyone is trying to pay for Christmas. If you have a store or other place that I can put some postcard type flyers, please let me know as I just got my marketing materials from my niece in Chicago. Time to spread the word!
Tonight, I have a quote from one of my favorites, Sir Winston Churchill. Keep on keepin on!
"Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts" I have a feeling thatn my parents know that quote well!
Love you Mom and Dad!
Nice job Mr. Rickling! Your dedication is impressive, keep on inspiring everyone!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I appreciate the fact that you don't want to be in the "lime light" but I would like to know who is inspiring me!
