CYCLE FOR STRENGTH 2017

BARBARA LARREA = INSPRIATION, MOTIVATION, STRENGTH!


Cycle for Strength 2017, the 4th Annual, what an INCREDIBLE event!  Barbara Larrea and the Wantagh World Gym Family really out did themselves this time!  Too many "thank you's" to go through - so many made this event a huge success and Strength for Life is so very grateful for everyone's hard work - ESPECIALLY to Barbara!  Her vision, determination, and commitment is what makes Cycle for Strength an AWESOME event!  

The ride starts with a video montage asking the crowd (95 riders!) questions such as "Why are you here?" "Why do you exist?" "What is your purpose?"  while Barbara voice overs (while spinning!) "the 2 most important days in your life are 1) THE DAY YOU WERE BORN and 2) THE DAY YOU DISCOVER WHY YOU WERE BORN! The moment you find your reason for being, when your "WHY" becomes clear" and then on the big screen you see  "When The WHY is BIG ENOUGH, The HOW is EASY"!  Motivated yet?? How can you not be!? I think many found their purpose through Barbara with Cycle for Strength, raising over $35,000 (so far, still going!) to help those with a cancer diagnosis be "Stronger than Cancer"!

THANK YOU BARBARA LARREA, WANTAGH WORLD GYM, and EVERYONE WHO PARTICIPATED IN 'CYCLE FOR STRENGTH' 2017!


On another note....Cycle for Strength raffle money will go to help Makenzie Cadmus, an adorable little girl who has a rare genetic skin disorder called Epidermolysis coincidence.  I had the opportunity to speak with Makenzie's grandma (the whole family was at CFS) and she told me that Makenzie's surgery is on November 13th - Evelyn's Birthday - no coincidence! Evelyn will help this little girl get through all she will endure, I am sure of that!
