Ragbrai (Couple of Diversions)

July 23rd, 2007 by Jeff Manning (LAF Staff)

Lance sent the email below and asked me to put it up on his blog. Day 2 Ragbrai updates tomorrow.

I wanted to make sure I got a couple of quick notes up today.

Friend of the LAF Brian Garofalo was injured in a bicycling accident recently. I wanted to let Brian and his family and friends know that we are thinking of him as we are pedaling across Iowa.

I also blogged a while back about Jon Lester, a pitcher for the Boston Red Sox who was diagnosed with cancer about a year ago. Well Jon has fought back and tonight will make his first start since his treatment. Amazing story.

LIVESTRONG,
Lance
