Hi Everyone!

I'm riding the Iditarod Sled Dog Trail on my mountain bike in Febuary of 2007 as part of the Iditarod Trail Invitational Multi-Sport Race .  The trail is 1100 miles long and runs from Anchorage to Nome, Alaska.  As part of this trip I hope to raise money for the National MS Society. 

I was diagnosed with MS in 2002, and know first-hand how difficult a new diagnosis can be.  The National MS Society is a great organization that is especially helpful with those coping with a new diagnosis and the endless questions and concerns that arise when dealing with this complex and unpredicable disorder.  The Society also supports cutting edge research devoted to finding a cure for MS.
