Heartspring Pedalfest 2013

Pedalfest is a 5 mile, 50K or 100K ride to support Heartspring.  Last year when I signed up, I was still very much "deer in the headlights" from finding out Konnor was a bit farther behind than I originally thought.  I figured it was a perfect way to put some positive energy into a facility that we'd be visiting regularly. 

This year, I signed up with heartfelt gratitude from the progress we've made thanks to Heartspring and Konny's lovely therapist.  Through Heartspring, we've also had a speech eval, seen the developmental pediatrician and will soon look more into genetic testing.  Konnor loves going to his appts and we really only have problems when it's time to work his neck, which seems to be his weakest area.

While I did only do the 50K again this year, I was so lucky to have my friend, Cori, ride with me!

And guess what!?!  It's not too late to donate!  You can still SPONSOR MY RIDE until Sept 9th!

The thing I love most about Heartspring is that events like Pedalfest make it possible for even kids without health insurance (like we have) to receive much needed services!  I love knowing that if tomorrow, we found ourselves in a bad place, Konnor would still be able to get the help he needs!
