Well, this weekend has finally arrived, the weekend where I ride a bicycle from Houston to Austin, a total of 180 miles! And I'm counting down the hours until the BP MS 150. I probably haven't trained as much as I should've...oh well. I'm pretty excited about this since I've never done anything like this before. I'm excited about being part of this huge thing with all these different people. I have to keep reminding myself that this is not a race, it's for charity and any pain I might go through is small in comparison to those who live with the effects of MS everyday.
Please say a prayer for me this weekend most of all for opportunities to share the Gospel. I struggle at times with events like these since the direct purpose is Gospel- or Christ-related, but I know Christ can be exalted through this, please pray that happens. Secondly, please pray that I make it to Austin and that my time on the bike isn't wasted by me thinking about worthless things.
I'll be riding from Katy (just west of Houston) to La Grange, TX Saturday, then from La Grange to downtown Austin on Sunday. I'll be posting my progess on twitter & facebook (follow me on twitter!)
I have reached my funrasing goal, but you are more than welcome to donate! You can follow this link to my participation site, your donation is VERY much appreciated!
