  • I was really into StarCraft and wanted Blizzard to make SC2 so when they released WoW, all of my friends signed up but I kept playing SC. When Burning Crusade came out in '07 I gave up and tried it out and am still playing. At one point I was the GM of a progression guild with 70+ players and two raid groups but it became…

  • I'm not weight training but I am a runner. In 10 days I'm doing my fourth marathon. The last time I had meat or dairy was November 2013. In fact, my wife and two teenage daughters are also vegans. Both of my daughters are competative swimmers (syncro and racing) who weight train year-round and all of us competed in…
  • Coffee and two slices of whole wheat toast w/peanut butter and jelly. If I have a run of 8 miles or more in the morning, I'll add a bowl of mixed fruit and/or some oatmeal.
