1 Day! 3 states! 206 miles! LOTOJA!

So for those of you who are not familiar with the most intense bike race known as LOTOJA. It means Logan to Jackson. This ride is 206 miles long, across 3 states, and it must be complete in one day. Crazy huh?

Who would dare tackle such an extraordinary feat? You would seriously have to be out of your head to try it. But my awesome mad-man of a husband was there, he rode and from sun up to sun down.

He began the race before dawn and it finally ended just before the sun went down. Over 12 HOURS on the bike. 12 HOURS!!

Not very many people thought he would make it :) but it he did. He came, he rode, and he kicked butt!

Way to go Brade! I'm glad you survived! We are super proud of you!!

- mom Cathy and I were Braden's pit crew, basically we served as refrigerators-

-here we are to prove Brade made it to Jackson :)-

- just after finishing the race and finding out his prize was a hanger, haha-

- crossing the finish line!-
- yes I am a pretty proud wife-
