Good things, good people, good times...I am finding more and more that my three topics blend into one. Take this week - I want to tell you about two guys who will be taking on tremendous physcial challenges for people they love.
As you may know, we are having extreme heat conditions in Western Pa. Despite the heat warnings, Mike Lloyd will be taking on the second leg of his Visionquest 2011. Mike has volunteered to undertake three challenges to raise money for Camp Aim, a camp for children with disabilities. The first leg was the 35-miles-in-one-day Rachel Carson Trails Challenge which he successfully completed in June.
This weekend, along with his law partner, Mark Coulson and brother-in-law Jerry Tucker, he will be biking 350 miles from Washington, DC to Pittsburgh along the C&O Canal and Allegheny Passage. You can follow their progress on Twitter at Moondog23p.
The second guy that I want to tell you about is Rob Faulkner whose wife Sharon is fighting brain cancer. Rob will be walking/running 24 hours in the Relay for Life in Cranberry Township in honor of his wife.

These are good guys, doing good things. Let's hope they have good times doing it!
