I've been pinching myself a lot lately. Today I got to meet Olympian and IM 70.3 world champ Sam McGlone! She was visiting the magazine mothership with her sponsor, PowerBar, to talk about a new product debuting soon.
The rest of my day was not as happy, unfortunately. I'm not so into sharing life's downers here, but this is a story many of you supported last summer, so you should know... My uncle Hank died today of the cancer he was diagnosed with last summer. Last week he had elected to stop treatment, so it was only a matter of time. He was a good man, my only uncle, someone I loved dearly. I will miss him. Thanks to all of you who donated to my Livestrong ride last summer in his honor.
I'm so sorry to hear about your Uncle's passing. My thoughts are with you and your family during this difficult time.
