A Small Token...

It has been almost a decade since I returned from Haiti. When I began my trip I was very excited and also scared. I actually feared for my safety. As I traveled through the country I was amazed by the generosity and resilience of the people. They invited me into their 'huts' and offered me food. My experiences there affected me greatly, they revived my faith in the human spirit. Since that time I have traveled all over the world, and met countless inspiring people. I have watched my teams and clients overcome amazing obstacles. But my time in Haiti will always have a special place in my heart.


It is very hard for me to imagine a better cause for my bike to go towards. My motorcycle is one of my most prized possessions, it seems like the least I can do for the people who gave me so much. Even when they had nothing. I hope this will encourage others to aid in the relief of their devastation.
I hope my team realizes that the challenges that they face are crucial to their health and that they are motivated by seeing the resilience in the people of Haiti in the coming weeks. Maybe certain participants will realize how stupid and petty it is to cheat themselves out of a week of weight loss for a game. It makes me so freaking angry. Grr... Despite my anger we had great workouts today and I am very optimistic about this weeks weigh ins.
