My best attribute is that I'm a passionate father of two amazing boys who inspire me in a way that nobody else can.  New for me this year, I have registered for the Seattle Rock 'n Roll 1/2 marathon in June as well as the ING New York City Marathon in November!  I'm more than a little excited to meet the challenges I've set for myself this year.
