F.S. Player: David
David, a university of Georgia grad now living in San Fran, offered me his place to stay while I was in San Fran even though he wouldn't be there the first night. When I arrived in his business apt., I noticed the bike, health bars, and workout gear all over the studio. Which was funny since my main memories of David were of playing trivia at Wing joints in Atlanta or a hazy run in with him in bars back when we were in Athens. When he returned the next day, he told me how he had been watching a program on the Ironman while still in school, and a piece on the Hoyt family inspired him--Inspired him to not do a marathon, or a mini triathlon, but the freaking Iron Man. Mind you, David was in his drinking prime at this time, but for some reason, come three months from now in Florida, with no triathlon experience of any kind under his belt, David will be competing in his first Triathlon. I'll probably be tailgating somewhere, dipping something fried into a bucket of ranch dressing. Want some inspiration yourself? Here's the people who did it for David.
