About Me

I've moved! Eugene, OR is now my home as I tackle grad school at the University of Oregon. Going for MBA in sports business. I competed in triathlons for the first time this summer - half-ironmans. For those who don't know, we pay to kick our own asses for a 1.2 mile swim, 56 mile bike, and 13.1 mile run, all in a row, as fast as you can (normally takes 5-7 hours depending on your level of talent). I actually qualified for World Championships for the Half-Ironman in November, but due to school demands and lack of training, I'm not going to race. Otherwise, school is going great, I LOVE Oregon, I miss my friends in C-bus, and life is good. I can't complain... Get Your Own! | View Slideshow

My Blog

WORLDS is a no go...

So, worlds are less than 2 weeks away, and I was definitely in freak out mode.  With grad school I haven't been able to train as much as I'd like, and I'm starting to feel the effects of 2 weeks ...
