My dad is right- one can count a humans’ age like a tree- by the number of rings it has.  My dad says he is at the age where you can count the rings around his knees. One can count the number of USA XTERRA Titles I have won by the number of rings I have when smiling and squinting into the sun… (its 7, if you cant bother to count)

Seriously, check out why my dad will kick your dads ass HERE.

I dont have 3hrs to write a good race report right now, but I know monday everyone spends half the day on their Facebook and reading about the weekends race results before real work starts, so here is a quick little something something about the weekend.

This is a quick peek at this whirlwind weekend.

Thanks Nils. Making a sweaty Caveman look good in the Alabama woods takes real talent!

I’m in Darkest Africa at the moment and dont get magazines or follow news on the web. So this was a nice surprise.
