A first 10k run, a first marathon, a first triathlon, a first ultra-distance triathlon, a first 100 mile run and now a commitment to marathon swims in oceans around the world.

Not only could I have not predicted the events that would come to define my athletic life I would have vehemently denied even the possibility of participating.

I believe that the greatest value in these ultra-endurance pursuits lies in the opportunities they present to share the stories of discovery, heartache, triumph and reflection from the passionate pursuit of potential.   The challenges I have faced  on land and in the ocean have had a profound effect on my ability to recognize opportunities in my professional and personal life, and I believe the same opportunities for self discovery are available to all of us. 

Have you developed a library of, "Remember when..." stories?

Have you considered that "Having a feel for a task" is not the same as controlling "How you feel about a task."

Do you know how our lives impact the ocean around us and why we need to remember that in order to be "Green" you need to remember that "The world is Blue."

From middle-school to high school, from business retreats to service club meetings, from small group meetings to large events I am able to tailor presentations to help the members of your community become what the world truly needs - people eager be ALIVE and change their worlds.
