My Story

I'm an active and (mostly!) healthy guy. I've been a runner all my life, and I've finished 1 marathon and several half-marathons. Running just got so boring so I got into mountain biking, which has become my passion. I've since done 4 triathlons including 2 off-road Xterra type triathlons.


In 2012, the same year I turned 40, I was diagnosed with follicular non-hodgkin's lymphoma. So that sucked! I fully intend to beat that and get back on my bike.
