I once heard “a trying time is no time to quit trying” and that was tested during my Newbury Triathlon. Two flat tires left me stranded with two miles left to hike my bike to the transition area for finishing the cycle. Well I finally made it and decided it was still worth finishing the [...]
I have decided to make a documentary that will follow the life of my good buddy Devin Ford. This was done once before back in the 60′s with British children when they were seven years old, and selected to represent a range of socio-economic backgrounds in Britain at that time, with the explicit assumption that [...]
Two buddies of mine joined me in Germany two weeks ago where we enjoyed the most potent beverages Munich could throw at us. The only thing missing is our lederhosen to match the womens drindls…. wait till Octoberfest!
