Challenegs to my Mind and Body

- Finished the Marine Corp. full marathon on Oct. 26, 2014 at 4:29 (10:15 per mile)

  - Summer 2015 cycling with a group across Virginia in 10 days along the Transamerica  trail, and the group continues to cross US  by mid July.

Such a schedule is too aggressive for my current body condition, and will be adjusted on the way.

See you somewhere along the way!
