Extra Mile America Foundation

Going the extra mile is doing more than the normal...more than expected. Going the extra mile is extending ourselves in our efforts and our communication. Going the extra mile is getting back up after we've been knocked down, despite whatever has happened, and saying, "I still choose the very best for myself!"

The Extra Mile America Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that encourages positive attitude and action by empowering individuals, organizations, and cities to "go the extra mile." Through public campaigns, speaking engagements, and partnerships with nonprofits, we empower people to apply the extra-mile principle, reach their goals, and live a more self-directed life.

Three states...one day

Posted by on 20 September 2009 | 0 Comments

Ohio to West Virginia to Pennsylvania.

All in one day. It helped that my pedaling jaunt through West Virginia was only about 15 miles...but still, it sounds good.

Today was a day I pedaled hard to chase the rain...and a few very scary dog barks haunting me in West Virginia. I was on a historic old road through the climbing hills (some steep!) Many of the trees are starting to change colors.

I was getting pretty tired with about ten miles to go, but a side-of-the-road diner saved the day with an outside bench and a vanilla ice cream.

Tomorrow, I ride to Pittsburgh.
