Why?

Believe it or not, that is a question that most people ask me when they learn that I choose to cover 140.6 miles by water, on wheels, and by foot…in one day.  Why do I choose to get up most days at 4:00 am, eat clean to keep my motor running, go to bed when its still light out in summer, and try to play balancing game between a career that requires 50+ hours a week and a training schedule that asks for another 12-20 hours.
