Get in shape with a goal in mind. Challenge yourself to do the Austin LIVESTRONG Challenge on October 24th & 25th and raise money for the fight against cancer along the way. Cancer doesn�t discriminate, and neither do we. Take the Challenge on a bike or on your feet. Participate on your own or with a team, uniting with others who want to pick a fight with cancer. We walk, run and ride to honor our families, our friends and ourselves. We celebrate victories and applaud hard work � walking your first 5K after completing treatment, organizing 50 co-workers to ride 10 miles for the first time, raising $500 in honor of a newly diagnosed friend, or riding 100 miles in memory of a loved one.

Registered a little less than a month ago. Have 3 people signed up on my team with more to come. Raised $370 already shooting for min. of $1000 per team member. Hotel is reserved, now just planning other details and fundraising more.
Flights booked - just got to work on the fitness now. We're really looking forward to the event & visiting Texas . If anyone has any advice on accommodation in Austin i would be very grateful.
Not registered, but definately will, getting a team organized to make the trip. Looking forward to riding with you Lance.
Waiting until I have the $$ for the reg. fee that's not set aside for bills!! I did run in a 5K today(my 1st) and finished in 41 minutes. Also been hiking quite a bit and participating in a bootcamp to increase my fitness level.
I need to get in some more rides before October 26, but I've had a good summer, with these events:
- the 100-mile Granite State Quest on July 12
- the 192-mile Pan-Mass Challenge (PMC) on August 2 and 3
- the 100-mile LIVESTRONG Challenge Philadelphia on August 24
- the 100-mile Seacoast Century on September 20
I completed this dare on October 26, but I can't find where I record that!

I am planning on doing both the 5K and the 90mile ride. Looking forward to both.
