Counting Coup is Saturday!

Sorry, I have not written here, but been a hecic and fun week.  Getting last minute work on bike, etc. 
My brother Bruce, Eastcoast Stephanie and their son Parker flew in last night from Georgia and it has been a blessing to spend some time with them!
My sisters and Greg come in the morning and my daughter and her family -
I am hoping to head to Orange County around 11:00 a.m. where I got a room at the Hampton, six miles from Black Star. I am planning my breakfast, clothes and ready as I will ever be.  This feels like the adventure of my life time and I hope I have many more to come.
I love this training and challenging myself to my very best and give something all I have!   Sure beats shopping!
Tonight I went to a meeting with Eastcoast and we had some great conversion and bonding time. 

I just need to keep thanking my couch Lou and my riding partner Dough for bringing me so far.  I have trained as much as I could while running a business and I just hope it's enough.  I know Lou has given me great tips on handling any situation that may arise and that's what counts!  Welcome the Pain!  keep fueled and hydrated - smile and have FUN - I am looking forwar to my big challenge and hope I kick ass!
At least that's my goal! 
Pretty tired, so my next post will be the results of the ride on Saturday!   Please send me prayers!

love
cheryl ( the super tired version) need sleep now! ;-)
