Chris and I finished the 50km Ride for Heart today. It was amazing to see so many people biking on the Gardiner and DVP, we even saw a unicycle. We were a bit faster this year, finishing in around 2 hours and 15 minutes. I think I was because I was willing to go faster down the hills this time (I wasn't 1 month away from my wedding). We are exhausted now, but are really glad we did it.

Chris and I were able to raise over $400 for the Heart and Stroke Foundation, and the IBM team has collected a total of $7880 in on-line pledges alone.
They took this picture of us shortly after crossing the finish line.

I am actually not as sore as I expected to be. Going swimming in 70 degree water afterwards probably really helped.

Now I have my bike fixed up and a helmet I want to do more biking. Lots of great paths nearby.
