  3. Enjoying the last holiday of the year with family. Christmas and New Years will be celebrated on the ocean!
  4. All packed up and ready to row. In Baltimore to drop off the boat. Next time I see her I will be in Africa!
  5. Received a letter from a 9yr old suggesting I row the Atlantic with a teammate so if I get attacked by a shark they could get eaten first!
  6. For all the early birds - I am on WKYC/Channel 3 tomorrow morning around 9!
  7. Running off my stress this week and have clocked in over 25 miles so far. Yay endorphins!
  8. http://twitpic.com/q46aj - Presented with a "mini-Wilson" on Saturday by the Chagrin Valley Rotary Club. I will not be alone on the ocean! :
  9. Spent the last eight hours packing the boat and only halfway there! It's amazing how much can fit in a 19ft ocean rowboat.
  10. Eek! Boat must be ready to ship out from Baltimore in four days. Two years of planning is down to this moment. Very stressed!
  11. Two interviews early tomorrow morning. Meeting one reporter at the gym as he is going to try to match my workout. Hope he likes a challenge!
  12. Fundraiser on Saturday night was a HUGE success. 200+ people attended and now over $30k raised for safe water. Best night in the whole year!
  13. @OceanPowerMag @Goudreauj Everything is powered by the sun. :-) I have two solar panels mounted providing 150 watts
  14. Learn to use satphone/toughbook - check. This is my first tweet by satellite phone. ;-)
  15. Funny moment at Lowe's today. Cashier asks what all the supplies are for. "Rowing an ocean." She then asks, "Is that for college credit?"
  16. One step forward, two steps back. Front end collision yesterday. Car-less and boat-less at the moment. Nothing like a good challenge!
  17. Come one, come all to my last big event on Nov.14th before the row. Pls see the following link for details http://flic.kr/p/7bAQhK
  18. @alextvalenic It was swimming the length of the Allegheny River last year in the Ripley's "Seeing is Believing" book. :-)
  19. Had to go to Barnes and Noble today to see the new Ripley's Believe It or Not! book. I am in there for one of my previous adventures!
  20. Raced the bus this morning on my 20-mile bike ride to work. I win.
