We finished our last training run this afternoon and we are ready to go. Everyone is busy packing, preparing vehicles, bikes and our families that we are leaving at home. We have worked hard and have experienced blood, sweat and tears as well as laughter and a great sense of accomplishment in our preparations. Thank you to the great community of Pendleton for being so supportive. I have mixed feelings tonight. I am excited, anxious, nervous for the race but part of me is sad for the training to be over. I will miss the fun we have had preparing and the group runs we have gone on. What a great bunch of women I have had the privilege of associating with. Now all we can do is go out and do our individual best and work together as a team to have a positive experience. Sister Pennies, let's go out there and live up to our name and SHINE!
Happy trails
