I honoured to receive this special award here in San Diego. The 40hr flight was fully worth it. The Competitor Awards are amazing, and the other award winners were truly inspiring. Saul Raisin, Scott Rigsby, Ryan Hall, Chris McCormack, Heather Fuhr – some amazing stories: EnduranceSportsAwards.com.

Yes, it’s BROKIN
After answering the same questions 300 times, I made this sign. It did the trick.
The sign says:
Yes, its BROKIN.
I fell.
No, wont race Maui.
Yes, I’m Bummed.
Thanks 4 sympathy.
The operation went well, but all the ass-kissing in the world couldn’t convince Doc to pimp the job with Titanium hardware. And, no, its not coming out. From now on, dopers and other evil forces who dare cross my path will have to face the wrath of “The Bionic Hand.”
Oh yes, and for the compression fracture of T12, I’ll be wearing the cute back brace for 2 months. Guess The Bionic Hand will be “out of the office” for a while. Time to clean up.
I’ll be back in South Africa from around October 18th. Just in time for my first birthday at home in 6 years. Despite being in Darkest Africa, I will be reachable via email, & Skype (stoltzmachine) Feel free to send “get well soon” cards, B-day presents or fat sponsorship contracts. Or all of the above.
