Watching both girls absolutely crush it at the AAU Volleyball Nationals in Orlando 🙂 A short beach trip to Coca beach in the middle of the event was a nice change of scenery.

A nice read on Apple’s UI
Physicality: the new age of UIThere’s a lot of rumors of a big impending UI redesign from Apple. Let’s imagine what’s (or what could be) next for the design of iPhones, Macs and iPads.Random thought
Regret is harder to live with compared to the consequences.
Travel: Atlanta, GA
Cobb Galleria and some awesome trails for running and riding in the area.
Travel: Washington, DC
A short trip to Washington, DC with my mom and Charlotte. We hit some of the more popular spots and also made our way to a few neighborhoods off the beaten path.
Library of Congress, Capitol Hill, Lunch in the House of Representatives, Botanical Gardens, National Art Museum, Union Market, White House, Mall, Georgetown, Dumbarten Oaks Gardens, The Wharf, National Postal Museum, Union Station, Blagden Alley Murals (bad choice), Lincoln Memorial and Vietnam Memorial. I also did a little easy run early Saturday morning around the mall area across to Arlington Cemetery and along the river. Probably one of the most enjoyable runs I have ever had “in the city”.
2025 All World Athlete
2nd year of achieving a Ironman AWA status which I am really proud of, small personal achievement unlocked. Top 2% in the world is nice accomplishment. #bucketlist
2025 Ironman 70.3 Chattanooga
Another Ironman 70.3 race under my belt and my best overall finish to date! It was slightly disappointing that the swim was cancelled due to strong currents, but if its the same for everyone, that works for me 🙂
The race venue, people and weather were perfect. Aside from my very first 70.3 in Augusta, I think this has been my favorite. This was probably influenced by some personal bests on all fronts, however, with not having a swim, I think that could have been expected to a small extent.
The weekend started by taking a beautiful drive up to Chattanooga through the mountains on Thursday, I left early so I could get work in once I arrived and avoid some traffic. The drive alone is worth the trip, along the beautiful Nantahala river through towns like Asheville and Bryson City.
OpenAero – A open source design system for Bike Accessories
After designing, building, rebuilding, and re-printing dozens of accessories for my bikes over the last few years, I wanted to create and share a open source design system for accessories for bikes that allows myself (and a community) to innovate and collaborate on these types of products. Here is a snippet from the readme file:
Our goal is to develop a modular mounting system for bicycle accessories — ranging from water bottle holders and lights to phone and cycling computers. Partially inspired by Gridfinity, this system provides a base platform and is intended to be stackable. The motivation behind the definition and open source nature of this project is to encourage community-driven design and innovation in the triathlon space.
Stop and face the fear ….
You gain strength courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face.
You must do the thing you think you cannot do.
