Yeah I guess I'm a media
whore but in my whoredom I really have one goal in mind - that
goal is to reach the guy or gal out there that may be overweight
and thinking that there is no hope to lose the weight.
I want to inspire them to GET UP, GET MOVING and live a
healthier and more active life. If I can do it,
anyone can do it!

BATON ROUGE MAGAZINE
225 Magazine, in my hometown of Baton Rouge,
Louisiana, did a really cool article on me in their
September 2008 issue. The article was
their monthly 'Signature' article.
CNN
SPECIAL FIT-NATION REPORT WITH DR. SANJAY GUPTA
I got a call at the beginning of
July from the producer for Dr. Sanjay Gupta at CNN
telling me that he recently visited
www.team464.com and wanted to interview me for a
feature piece on the network. Being the cautious
prick that I am I told him to f-off thinking he was
my training partner playing a joke on me. Well, it
wasn't my training partner. It really was the
producer at CNN and after I apologized he setup a
day and time in New Orleans the following week to
come down with the film crew to do the interview.
We did the interview on some
random street in New Orleans and they filmed me
walking around. It was cool and for a few fleeting
moments I felt like a rock star as random people on
the street were walking up to my parents and the
small crowd asking who I was and what movie I was
filming. Little did they know it was only some
former super-duper-morbidly-obese-fat-boy turned
triathlete talking about losing weight. (I
still felt like a rock star!)
(The
Times-Picayune did a feature article on me that
published the day of the marathon and a paragraph or
two in the follow up article that published on the
day after the marathon.)
Tangi Lifestyles, a local
magazine for Tangipahoa Parish in Louisiana did a
feature article on me in May 2008.
