CURRENT MISSION Run a marathon in all 50 states, seek out new brew pubs, to boldy fish where few have fished before ABOUT ME I got married to my best friend in July 2011 and we had our first child together in December 2013. I am a runner and I am using the vehicle of doing a marathon in every state as an excuse to travel the country and, eventually, the world. I am also a homebrewer who visits any brewpub that's on the way. I have also been know to wet a fly in a stream or two. I have also seen much of the world courtesy of the US Army. PHILOSOPHY Live and let live. I work hard at what I love and try to be professional in all I do.
