Self Challenge Series

So in an attempt to forward myself to new health horizons…i’ve set sail on a new challenge. The challenge I’ve presented myself is that of collecting the most T-shirts from challenging public events such as marathons, mountain biking events, etc.

So, this challenge has been made and my trusty companion, Jennifer, will be by my side to trudge through the blood, sweat and tears with me!

In preparations to the upcoming series of activities, we’ve been undergoing numerous feats of training. Working out regularly, dieting properly and creating the stamina needed to not only participate but to succeed in completion of the events.

the best part about this process is obtaining new gear! I LOVE new gear!!! First of, the Urban Assault Vehicle was carefully selected and accessorized with the latest n greatest: new head unit w/ iPod interface to amp up the enthusiasm for the love of the event, gnarly BFGoodriches to enable traction to any trailhead and/or nearest mudpit, roof rack to transport efficiently w/o taking up precious Bella, the fuzzybutt, cargo space inside and of course an infamous Flowmaster 40 exhaust to shake the earth and let em know you’re coming:

Other gear includes a new K2 T-Nine Vista 2 wheel whip (not pictured yet) for my daredevil co-pilot Jen, who has graciously stepped up to take on challenges that shes never even participated before and is undergoing rigorous crash course sport education, from yours truly! J in her full glory piloting my old whip (she looks quite enthused!):

So grab your gear, addrenaline junkies, look out for new upcoming competition and beware because this dynamic duo is heading to an event near you.
