While I was in the Munich area, I was lucky enough to stay in the small resort town of Tegernsee for a few days. This is a pretty sweet place. It is a small village located on the banks of a beautiful sub-alpine lake. The town itself is located right on the Austrian border in […]

My Euro Trip: Quelle Challenge Roth
July 21, 2006 – 9:53 am
Those of you who have been around me over the course of the last six month know that I have not been my usual psychotic self when it comes to triathlon training. Usually when I am in Ironman mode, all I do is swim, bike, run, eat and sleep. This time around, I have had […]
My Euro Trip: Pre Race Week
July 20, 2006 – 9:47 am
This was probably the most relaxed I have ever been going into an Ironman distance race. Again for those of you not quite sure what an Ironman triathlon entails, it consists of a 2.4 mile swim (3.8k) 112 mile bike (180k) and a full 26.2 marathon (42k) all done in succession on the same day. […]

Well folks, I am back in the States and as usual, I can say that I am not too thrilled to be back. Every time I go overseas I somehow seem to find myself in the company of the coolest people on earth in the coolest place on earth. My recent three week trip to […]
What Are You Going to do When You Get Back?
June 19, 2006 – 12:11 pm
I was at a party this past weekend and as usual, ended up talking about the trip with several people. One of the questions that I get asked a lot is what I am going to do when I get back. My usual response is: I don’t know. It sounds like a lame answer and […]
New Developments
June 16, 2006 – 3:58 pm
Many of the contacts that we have made with various aid organizations, sponsors and media companies have seem to come about completely by chance. We usually get contacts from friends, friends of friends, relative of friends and even just casual conversation around town in bars and restaurants. One of the latest developments for TWBR was […]
World Cup Fever Has Arrived – Except in America
June 13, 2006 – 9:12 pm
Sporting fans around the globe are leaving work early (or not going at all), buying new T.V.’s, gathering in groups and basically ignoring the rest of their responsibilities for the next 4 weeks as the 2006 FIFA World Cup winds its way through Germany to the finals on July 9th in Berlin.

You’re Crazy and You’re Going to Die
June 1, 2006 – 11:36 am
In talking with countless people about our upcoming jaunt around the world, many people are extremely excited about it. However, there are also a lot of people who think the Steve and I are out of our minds given that we are willingly going to drive through some very "interesting" places. My own apprehensions early […]
