Michael Phelps went 5 years without missing training.

April24

Wow! This guy is a fighter. Michael Phelps went 5 years without missing a single day of training. Training on Christmas? Yes. Training on his birthday? 2x. Really amazing guy and fascinating to see the arc of his personal history, especially the huge bump he hit in the middle and then found his way back to an even higher level.

I especially love the stories of him swimming against people in 2016 that he motivated to get into the sport when they were 12. Amazing drive.

This is hands down my favorite pump up video:

This is bwb’s personal blog, so he can share his thoughts with the world, however scary or silly they might be. Plus family and friends can track what I am up to, and where I am in the world.

I am pretty simple. I love Mangos. I love the ocean (although mostly at sunset, as I’m a ginger). I love to travel, eat exotic food, do long bike rides, read, and use my imagination. At some point, I decided it was better to be a pirate captain than an admiral. I am a globalist and see the entire world as my responsibility and playground. And I am married to an amazing woman who makes life even more fun :)! And we are now the proud parents of Calico Jack :).
