The HARDEST thing we’ll ever face in life is the realization of how little time we have to make a difference. We should only fear the day we realize life might have passed us by – it is by far the worst tragedy. When you leverage the possibility of what you can achieve, it has […]

On Saturday, June 20, 2015, I will tackle the ‘Sub-3² Challenge’ at Presque Isle State Park on beautiful Lake Erie. A few short hours north of Pittsburgh, it is the perfect setting to have a marathon run and a marathon swim, back-to-back.

Something we all
“I cannot do ______ because…” How often do you hear someone give you that line? I hear it a lot. In the long term plan, excuses are brutal. Not living or accomplishing your dreams because of some PERCEIVED WALL in your path leaves you a sub par life. I live life the best way I
