IT'S COMING...



Time is going really fast, and currently I don't think I'm doing very well with both fundraising and training for Tahoe. For one thing, the fundraising is a huge sum of money, and frankly I don't have the chunk of money to cough up if I can't raise the funds. Let's do some simple math here:

• 102 days left and I have to raise $4,355 more
• means I have to raise roughly $43 per day
• that's about $300 per week
• $1,200 per month

So let's say I'll do Bake Sale again this year. A bag of Chocolate Chip Cookies was selling for $15 per bag. That means:

• 3 bags per day = $45
• 20 bags per week = $300
• 80 bags per month = $1,200

Wow that's a lot of cookies! I should switch my occupation as a baker instead...

Second item I am worry about: the Tahoe ride is much harder than the Montauk ride. There are many many slopes going up and also in high altitude. I am actually freakin' out about climbing those hills. But the view will be gorgeous! I think I'm just freakin' out for no reason, because by the end of the training season I will be so ready for it and it should be a piece of cake! But until then, HELP!

Any ideas for fundraising? hmmmm...
