Battling diabetes is something that is close to our hearts since Adam has Type I Diabetes. AFC's mission at it's core is to raise awareness, show other diabetics that anything is possible, and to do anything to combat diabetes!
Today was great! We biked from Charlottesville to Chester (which is a suburb of Richmond). There was no wind and it was not hot out. We kept a hott pace for the first 73 miles and then we stopped for lunch. We ate lunch with some of Adam's co-workers from Richmond. It was super awesome. They got us wraps, cookies, and fruit and brought it all to a little park that was right on our route as we went through Richmond so we didn't have to do any extra miles to find them. It was great!
After lunch we continued on to Chester, VA. We arrived at the house of Judith who is someone who found us on CraigsList.org. Our friend Lauren Saft put postings on craigs list that we were looking for places to stay all across the country!
Judith made a hugeeeee steak dinner and some amazing deserts! She even had a pool that we were able to cool of in! So awesome!
Tomorrow we are heading out to Newport News, VA where we will be staying with Carly Stump's friends and hopefully doing our Virginia Karaoke (in case you didn't know... we have to do karaoke in every state we visit).
