Stay with me Nickname


Dear Friends,

I wanted to fill you in on the Leadville 100 as it is now over and all that remains are amazing memories, sore legs and an awesome belt buckle!

Not Too Blind To See


When was the last time you stopped and appreciated a simple sight? Like the color of a tree in bloom, the sky on a sunny day, the stars on a clear night, the magnificence of a grasshopper or a bunch of ants working tirelessly on their home? When was the last time you stopped and just appreciated the beauty of our sense of sight and the amazing things it allows us to do from read this blog, mountain bike, catch a ball or communicate to someone without talking? If you’re anything like me, you don’t stop to appreciate sight very often.

Challenge: The New Miracle Drug


What is challenge to you? I find that I ask this question to myself daily. What is challenge to me and have I challenged myself lately? I think that one of the most important things we can keep present in our lives is a sense of challenge. For me, challenge is about pushing out of my comfort zone both physically and mentally. It can be as simple as a hard workout (if you don’t crossfit, you should!) or putting yourself in a new social setting and forcing yourself to meet new people.
