Welcome to my MS CCSVI research fundraising blog. I am currently training for a double (ultra - 4.8 mile swim, 224 mile bike, 52.4 mile run) ironman in September of 2010 in an effort to fundraise for MS CCSVI research. You can check out my fundraiser site at http://www.microgiving.com/profile/chuck. I suggest clicking on the "About Me" tab as the MicroGiving.com templates were a little limiting so the profile page did not allow me to add all the content I wanted to add. MicroGiving.com does not keep any of the donations for administration/overhead fee. That means 100% of your donation goes directly to fund CCSVI MS research. For more information about CCSVI you can go to http://csvi-ms.net/en/content/ccsvi-huge-breakthrough-ms. Please help spread the word about my fundraising efforts. Thanks.

6/12 - Long bike ride

Things did not go quite as planned... I set the alarm for 4:20 AM, but ended up waking up at 3:00 AM and could not fall back to sleep. I took the opportunity to eat a bigger breakfast than previously planned which probably helped during the ride. I ended up riding 37 miles prior to meeting Frank and Shannon at 7:00 AM. Prior to heading out with them I adjusted my cleat position and almost all the knee pain was gone. I wish I would have noticed sooner that the cleat position was off after the accident, but better late than never. I ended up riding 132 miles today and felt great. Time to spend time with the family and rest up for tomorrow's long run.
