Category: What I’ve Learned

This past summer, on a recent family trip, I went without Wi-Fi or cell coverage for a full seven days.  Camping in the dirt, eating S’mores, reading books, and not checking news or email once.

For most of my life reading has been a chore.  I blame school.  Book reports, essays, and multiple choice questions all turned reading into a means to an end.  My “end” was ensuring my GPA stayed high enough so my parents wouldn’t stop paying for my car insurance.  I always wanted to “read for fun”, school just seemed to make it impossible.

For those of you who know me, you’ve known that the last few years have been a journey through weight loss for me. I’ve spent countless time making decisions with cumulative outcomes that have made me the athlete that I am today.

For as long as I can remember I’ve been a morning person.  In high school it was 6AM basketball practices.  In college it was waking up at 5:30AM to open the campus weight room.  As a father and business owner I’ve learned that mornings are my best asset for maintaining fitness on the bike.
