MY STORY: I'm a former professional baseball
player (minor leaguer) turned endurance athlete/triathlete. I grew up in a very athletic family. My father was
a quarterback at Northern Illinois University and head football coach at a major high school in a suburb of Chicago. My uncle
Jerry was a NFL quarterback with NY Giants, Indianapolis Colts, Oakland Raiders, and Tampa Bay Bucs. I enjoy training with
my good friend Brian Smith and thank him for the sag support on my long runs.
MY
FAMILY: I have unlimited support from my wife, Tara and daughters Kaitlyn and Kendall. I couldn't
do everything I do on a daily basis with out their love and support!! Thank You...
I owe a huge "Thank
You" to my parents, Don and Sue Huff for raising me with a strong work ethic. It is because of them where the 4:30am
alarm doesn't bother me.
