This year, I’m taking on a new challenge that pushes me well beyond my comfort zone: riding 80 miles over three mountain passes. (Leadville, Minturn and Vail) It’s going to be long, steep, and exhausting—but every mile has a purpose.
I’m riding in support of the Children’s Hospital Colorado Breathing Institute, which helps kids who struggle every day with serious lung and breathing conditions. These are children who don’t get to take something as simple as breathing for granted, and the care, research, and innovation from this institute can truly change—and save—their lives.
When the ride gets tough (and it will), I’ll be thinking about the resilience these kids show daily. Compared to what they face, a few brutal climbs feel small.
If you’re able, I’d really appreciate your support. Every donation goes toward advancing treatment, supporting families, and giving these kids a better chance at healthy, full lives.
Thank you for being part of this with me—it means more than you know.
