#Day7 full of laughs in the Florida heat for 25 miles. The bar at the end of the bar was awesome. Joke of the day was my promotion to Bartender at a "Steak House." 💙💛🚲🍍 . . . . #KirstenBikesMD2FL #EveryMileMatters #UlmanCancerFund #Keys2Keys2018 #CancerSUCKS #K2K2018 #Day7 (at Florida Keys)

#Day7 I dedicate my ride to Charlotte and the children of the parents on my team. I want looking for Charlotte yesterday but there were many metaphorical signs all around me. I ended the ride for the first time with a Yuengling. I realized yesterday that I still have a lot of raw emotions about her cancer journey from 3 years ago. It's still fresh and I truly thought I found peace but still need to work on it. . . We are biking in Key Largo Florida today. I am just going to enjoy the ride. Today is the last full ride of the journey. I arrive in Key West TOMORROW!!!! 💙💛🚲🍍 . . . . #KirstenBikesMD2FL #EveryMileMatters #UlmanCancerFund #Keys2Keys2018 #CancerSUCKS #K2K2018 #Day7 (at Key Largo, Florida)

Was having waaaaay too much fun last night at the SandLot Bar. Apparently found a pineapple to hug! 🍍😍 . . It was the first time our team actually can let go. We are all corn hole dancing machines. People wear g-string bikinis in Florida too. Brit was giving everyone dance lessons. The more I drank the better I got at corn hole. I also won't get over Brian S. dancing to an EDM version of Frozen's let it go. We walked all the way back to the hotel at midnight. Still getting on my bike today. No hangover. It's called 3 drinks and high on life. 🍹😊 . . Life is good! 💙💛🚲 . . . . #KirstenBikesMD2FL #EveryMileMatters #UlmanCancerFund #Keys2Keys2018 #CancerSUCKS #K2K2018 #Day6 (at Delray Beach, Florida)

Today I am riding for my inner circle of friends that get me through anything and everything. When I need something they are always there. Today goes out to you. My life is much brighter and full of laughter with you guys. 💙💛🚲🍍 . . . . #KirstenBikesMD2FL #EveryMileMatters #UlmanCancerFund #Keys2Keys2018 #CancerSUCKS #K2K2018 #Day6 (at Melbourne Beach, Florida)

We just did 103 miles in Florida!!! I am so proud of them since it was a first for many on this team. I remember my 1st century on the #4kforCancer. 💙💛🚲🍍 . . I dedicated my ride to Laura who is very much part of the #K2K2018 team although she is currently home receiving treatment for cancer. I rode for Grace, Bo, and Steven and their parents who are on my team. These wonderful parents lost their children too soon. I also bike for Camden who is a cancer survivor and his dad is on my team. ✊ . . Such a great day and so rememberable. JB, one of my teammates, had that margarita waiting for me at the bar. I've been dreaming about that marg all day. 🍹😘 . . . #KirstenBikesMD2FL #EveryMileMatters #UlmanCancerFund #Keys2Keys2018 #CancerSUCKS #K2K2018 #Day5 (at Daytona Beach, Florida)

Visiting the Charleston Cancer Center was the most rewarding experience on this trip hands down. Being in a cancer center is not the greatest ever. Sadly it is one of the most painful uncomfortable experience to go through. What made it hands down great was the opportunity to help relieve that pain and help people forget about it for a while. I sat down with 2 wonderful women while they were receiving chemo talking about dogs, the shore, and dollar general stores popping up randomly. The Ulman Cancer Fund for Young Adults gave the center a bell for patients to ring when completely done with receiving treatment. I definitely grew closer to my K2K2018 family too. . . . . . #KirstenBikesMD2FL #EveryMileMatters #UlmanCancerFund #Keys2Keys2018 #CancerSUCKS #K2K2018 #Day4 (at Charleston Cancer Center)
