Hi there.
It’s been a long time. We’ve scattered to the winds, changed jobs, had babies, broken our hearts, found ourselves, and generally had a hell of an action-packed year.
But we’re back, and we’re hoping you’re still into us. We are definitely still into you. So, let’s get right to the big…

Operation: Challenge Me To Do Something and I Will...
Hi! I am training for the May 4th Wildflower Triathlon with Team in Training, a group that helps raise money for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. In just about a month I will be swimming, biking and running alongside my good friend Mat Honan. I can’t wait. The training is tough-this past week was gnarly-a “build” week they call it, where you ratchet up your training to...
