I am participating in another ride for Cancer--albeit this time it is one hour and not 6 weeks BUT the cause is actually more near and dear this time around. Please help me raise funds to support Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center in Buffalo NY. Your donation will help fund research not just around the Buffalo community, but around the world (and hopefully indirectly trickle over to Seattle/Denver where Whitney has gotten treatment). Every dollar you donate, Roswell will match $13, donate $100 and that's $1,300! Even $1 will help reach my personal goal of $500.

For those of you who do not know, Whitney is my best friend from Pomona College, we met in 2007. She is a 31 year old beautiful, smart, and hilarious (also medical student) girl boss from Alaska, currently living in Seattle. She has been battling stage IV colon cancer since her 20s. She never ceases to amaze me with her ability to bring us all together, her passion for travel, loyalty to all friends, kindness, humor, and amazing taste in music. Her strength inspires me on a daily basis and really has taught me the meaning of appreciation and gratitude. She used to teach spin and barre and continues to crush at home Peloton work outs. Exercise is something we get to do, not a chore. Excited to raise money in her name with this fundraiser!

Thank you all!
