02/16/25 - Nanyuki, Kenya - FIRST TIME WINNER - Time to brag on a fellow cyclist, our granddaughter Liana. Today she competed in the 10to4 Mountain Bike Challenge, a 3-day racing competition for all different age groups and racing abilities on the slopes of Mount Kenya. More specifically, she competed in the 6-8 year old girls division and won her 4.5 km race. There were seven girls in her race and she was 2 minutes and 35 seconds ahead of her nearest competitor. If she would have raced against the 6-8 year old boys, her time would have gotten her a third place out of 15 riders in that field. That is an impressive result for a seven year old riding in her very first race. If you know Liana, you know she has a competitive spirit: the kind of spirit that you are born with, the kind of spirit that you either have or you don’t, and most importantly, the kind of spirit that has the potential to separate her trajectory from the rest. Well done Liana!

Very exciting news to share!

I won NaNoWriMo this year! I have never hit the 50,000 in a month goal, so this has been incredibly exciting to me. I’m really proud that I was able to stick with my goal and pull through in the end, especially balancing my first semester of university. 

Above are my statistics for the month. I was writing much earlier in the evening than during Camp and much less consistently as well. As you can see, my word counts for each day are all over the place. I fell very behind at one point as well. This just shows that there is more than one way to achieve that sweet, sweet NaNo win!
