We have a mystery on our hands, and it revolves around a skewer. Literally. A Bontrager Carbon skewer to be exact. And it’s getting deeper and more mysterious.

On November 10th 2006 I had the honor of seeing a beautiful presentation at the Ironman 70.3 World Championships. It was about John Blais, the ALS Warrior Poet. I am like everyone else, intrigued and inspired by his story. I thought about him a lot on Sunday at Eagleman. This beautiful poem is on his [...]
