FoF are awesomesauce! I LOVE this write-up! They've all be super duper great, but as an Alaskan, it's fun to read and see photos of Alaska. The Inside Passage is AMAZING. I highly recommend it if you can schedule a cruise or go on the poor person cruise - the Alaska Marine Highway ferry system. Kudos for hanging on that long. Those bike seats SUCK epically. I plan on my MoN this weekend, but might be confined indoors depending on what the weather does. My spin bike has a regular bike seat so WAY more comfortable. Plus, the race marshall won't booby trap it by having it shut off after 30 minutes. However, I won't have as cool of a strava tracking line as Mike H! :) So sad I missed the deadline to donate to Tough as Nail’s cause. :( I’m super happy she met her goal though.

DARN!!! But AWESOME - FoF are the best, but stop being so quick. The Swimmer - thanks for bringing this to attention and making a difference for many!

Love the idea! Kudos to you for toughing out 3 hours on a fat exercise bike seat. Friends of Fatty, I continue to be inspired by all of you. It's my lunch time, and the donation link is already down because you all attacked Fatty's PayPal account with reckless abandon to help out these kids! Bravo! Awesome 100MON Mike! Love the idea! Kudos to you for toughing out 3 hours on a fat exercise bike seat.
