Gifts From The Big Island
Monday, October 19th, 2009
Today I’ve decided that Hawaii might be the nicest state.
First Bree Wee helped me out with my career as a spinning instructor before we even met and now Jason Lester sent me some sweet swag from this year’s Ironman World Championship.
I came home from work today to see a package with a with a Kona return address.
Ta-Da!
It may be decades before I’m ever able to claw my way into racing Kona, but at least I have a sweet water bottle to motivate me to keep going until that day comes.
I know, only a major geek would get all psyched about a water bottle. Right? Lame.
Oh well. I love it either way.
If you don’t know Jason’s story, check him out. A lot of people may just know him as that disabled ultraman. Or that guy that just one the ESPY award, but he has a pretty amazing story, and an even more awesome foundation focused on helping kids to think creatively about their lives through athletics. Check out his Never Stop Foundation. http://www.neverstopfoundation.org/
Check him out on Facebook too. That is where I found out about his swag giveaways.
