Chad and Jac are in Memphis Getting Ready for Sweatin’ for St. Jude 2016 – Text RIDE to 785833 to Donate!

As you all know, the last two years, Jaclyn and Chad helped raise money and awareness for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital with an event called Sweatin' for St. Jude.  And, on two different occasions, we walked/ran 50 miles on side-by-side treadmills at the Owensboro Family YMCA.  Well, this year, Chad and Jac are going even bigger.  They are IN Memphis right now awaiting their fate...

The duo will be riding 300 miles from Memphis, TN, to Owensboro's own Moonlight Ride on Friday. Think their booties can take it?

They are starting out bright and early tomorrow morning. I'll be joining them on Thursday and Friday but until then, I'll be bringing you updates that they send me from the road. Here's today's snippet!

From Chad: We are climbing atop two road bikes (provided to us generously by Legends in Owensboro) and we're riding 300 miles- from the entrance of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis to the starting line of the Moonlight Ride in downtown Owensboro.  300 miles.  4 days.  2 bikes.  One mission!

You'll be able to cheer us along the whole way.  We'll have daily updates on the air at WBKR, WBKR.com and the WBKR Facebook page.  Text RIDE to 785833 to donate!

And, on Friday, June 3rd, we'll roll into town and finish our journey at the opening ceremonies of the Moonlight Ride, which is Owensboro's ride to benefit St. Jude.

Sweatin' for St. Jude 2016 is presented by Window World!  Stay tuned.  It's going to be a bumpy ride!  LOL!
