MS 150

This past weekend, Jenny took part in the MS 150 bike ride from Proctor (near Duluth) to Blaine. She did it in honor of her cousin, Birgit, who headed up the Wells Fargo, 100 Monkey's team, and other friends she knows who live with Multiple Sclerosis. Also joining the 100 monkeys were 3 of Jenny's friends, her dad, brother Josh, and one of his friends.

Many people camped at Proctor High School. We were fortunate to be able to spend the night at Beth's sister's house in Duluth. We "carbed" up at the Olive Garden. Yum! Here was the parking sign we found for Beth at the High School.

Jenny, Greg, Nicole, Jesse, and Beth. It was super organized, and they treated us well. At each rest stop, they had lots of water, gatorade, food, and of course port-o-potties.

Chris came to watch Jenny cross the finish line. She was very happy to see him! All in all, it was a great experience. It was one of the most challenging things Jenny has done, but well worth it. It was also wonderful to share in the experience with so many wonderful people.
