I then did a quick photo shoot for NBC Sports. Every year they try and capture a variety of images that once again will be used for the one hour television production of the World Championships.

Here I am with good friend Scott Rigsby. I am holding his new Book “Unthinkable” The true story about the first double amputee to complete the World famous Hawaiian Ironman Triathlon.

Scott has a soft spot for my daughter Jordan and personally signed this book with a special note just for her.
