| What I'd do if I won the lottery |
Well, I won the Kona Lottery last year! If I won the real lottery I would donate my time to helping the less fortunate and illiterate (everyone should have a chance to learn to read). I would donate time to helping the environment -- maybe start a business to do that. |
| Bonus Info |
I have a daughter who is in the Army. She is waiting for her orders and I hope everyday that she is going somewhere so that she won't get deployed to Iraq or Afghanistan. I love the sport of triathlon, it is a wonderful community of athletes who want to push themselves beyond what they think is possible. Also, there is a book being published this year of the 50 best triathlons and I was asked to do the write up on my race for Eagleman from 2007. |
