A big thanks to Lesley and Allan Fath - and your horse Pumpkin - for opening up your home to the Cycle to Walk team last night.  I think it’s safe to say that we appreciated your hospitality as much as your horse appreciates carrots.

I don’t know where I would be in my life if I didn’t have a strong, determined, positive attitude. I recall going to Easter Seal Camps in Squamish, BC when I was younger and chatting with other people who had limited mobility. Some felt sorry for themselves and didn’t focus on their abilities. I always tried to demonstrate to people the things that I could do rather than focus on what I couldn’t do. Going through rehabilitation myself, I know first hand that it is an extreme test on one’s patience, body, and ego. There were times in my life where I cried and I just wanted to give up, but I knew in reality that it wasn’t what I wanted to do.  I have challenging times in my life, just like everyone else.  The trick is to keep pushing forward.

Today was exciting!  It all began at 6:40 am in the studio of City TV’s Breakfast Television Show where Cycle to Walk had the opportunity to spread its message in a live interview.  Thanks Wendy and all the Staff at City TV for welcoming us into your studio. Later in the morning, Cycle to Walk was presented a gift card for $500 for the team to use on any items sold by the Hudson’s Bay Company. Thanks to the HBC for the t-shirts.
