Cracked Cat

I never intended to be a biker. I intended to be a horse trainer, then a veterinarian, then a Ph.D, and then I realized that all these things were overrated. I became a mom during the process of earning my Ph.D in veterinary science, and after discovering I was pregnant with yet another child during my graduate degree, I acquired a MS instead of a Ph.D.

After a short stint in a research lab, I decided my place was in the home with my kids. My type A, overachieving, still slightly competitive personality was not fully satisfied however. That is when I discovered running.

When I found myself doing laps in the pool after a running injury, I realized I was only one sport short of a triathlon. That’s when I met Mary, my biker buddy and mentor. And that is how I became a biker (at age 35, no doubt).

And when the opportunity to rescue a baby bird from the center of the road presented itself, I demanded we stop and we did. The little veterinarian in me became more and more satisfied with each ride.
