Well here I am the day after the 2011 NYC marathon and I decided that it’s time to take a break from feeding my face to put some of my thoughts down about the weekend. As many of you know, I once again raced with Ethan Zohn and his charity Grassroot Soccer, raising money for [...]
Liberty Sports Magazine is dedicated to reporting on the disciplines of swimming, biking, running, and multisport racing and training. And as the multisport editor I have an obligation to hold true to that mission and I take pride in doing so. But I also realize that in the midst of all of the swimming, biking, [...]

The more seasoned and experienced I get (note – I didn’t say “older”), the more I understand the importance of what we leave behind. Although I know I still have many decades of life, love, and laughs in front of me, I recognize that someday there will be a final curtain. And I don’t say this with any doom and gloom, I simply want to point out that someday, we will run out of tomorrows, and that should place a greater emphasis on the importance of today.

The sport of triathlon always gets my writing juices flowing. For different reasons, so does the topic of death and losing a loved one. So I can’t quite understand why when those two subjects combine as one that I am practically at a loss for words.

Given the fact that I am a leukemia survivor, and am quite active with The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, I find myself making connections all the time. Connections in the medical field, connections to patients, and their family members, and connections to wonderful people who just want to do their part to make a difference…. to count, and to matter.
Our friends at the Philadelphia Insurance Triathlon have given me the green light to raffle off an outstanding prize package to their 2011 race while benefiting The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. (Please note this contest is for the 2011 event)
