Episode #43 is an interview edition featuring professional triathlete Brooke Davison.

Last year, BodyHealth.com wrote, "Brooke has just finished her first full year of competitive triathlon. She maintained an undefeated season. She has raced and won in Sprint, Olympic, and 70.3 distances with a total of 12 races. The most recent win at Ford Ironman 70.3 Clearwater, makes her the 2008 Female Amateur World Champion. Brooke joins the sport of triathlon building off of her background as an All American Collegiate swimmer at University of California Berkeley, recreational mountain biker, and runner. Brooke raced her first triathlon in July 2007, and was named a USAT All American after just 3 races. She was drawn to the sport when she started attending Masters swim practices taught by Dave Scott, who has since become her coach. Back in the pool and reconnecting with the sport she loved, it was an easy step to bring her passion for cycling and running into the mix. A strong competitive spirit and a fierce determination and fortitude prove to be a winning combination."

The Special Report edition features sounds and interviews from the St. Anthony's Triathlon held on April 26, 2009.

History was all over this race. High winds lead to waters so rough the amateurs did not swim. Despite the 5 foot swells the professionals did swim while everyone else raced a duathlon. This was the first time in the race's 26 year history the swim was cancelled.

The race also marked the first ever official LIVE TwitterCast of a triathlon. Brought to the internet by the fine folks of Athletes for a Cure.org and sponsored by Oakley, the only place to get a live broadcast of the race was through Twitter.

Listen in as 2008 Ironman 70.3 World Champion Terenzo Bozzone introduces the show and I bring you the sounds of the race and get the reaction of professional triathletes, Andy Potts, Laura Bennett, Brooke Davison, Becky Lavelle, and Timothy O'Donnell only moments after they completed the race.

Honoring Dr. Michael Vinecki and Advancing the Cause of Team Winter

Today we learned the sad news of the passing of Michael Vinecki, age 41, of Gaylord, Michigan. Michael was diagnosed with prostate cancer on his 40^th birthday.

Michael came to my attention through his daughter, Winter, after, at the age of 9, she completed an Olympic distance triathlon as a part of TeamWinter.org She formed Team Winter to raise awareness of prostate cancer and money for the Athletes For a Cure Foundation. A non-profit organization raising money to find a cure for prostate cancer. To date, her efforts have brought in over $100,000.

Earlier this year I had the opportunity to interview Winter on the “Stay Tuned Report” podcast released on February 6^th. Although we didn't meet in person it was clear, from the very moment she came to the phone, that I was talking to no ordinary 10 year old.

During earlier meetings with her mother and with Scott Zagarino, the president of Athletes for a Cure I was informed that Michael's cancer was in an advanced stage and his passing would come soon. Although I understood the situation I have to admit I was in denial of just how soon, soon was to be.

Michael passed away at with the entire family snuggled in bed with him.

Michael's family has two requests. First is for you to go to AthletesForACure.ning.com and leave a message in the guest book.

The second request is, to show your support for the 2 million other American families fighting the same battle by wearing your Team Winter Edition Oakley Sunglasses at races this year. You can order yours at the “Shop at the Athletes for a Cure Store” link on the AthletesForACure.orgweb site. Proceeds from every pair of sunglasses goes to the fight against prostate cancer.

Although I never met Michael or had the privilege of speaking to him I feel a deep personal loss at his passing this is a result of getting to know a little bit about his wife, daughter, and three sons. I am sending this message to mourn the loss of Michael and share in the grief of his family's loss and perhaps in that sharing, to find the strength to bear that sorrow and courage to sew the seeds of hope of a day when no more lives are lost to cancer.

What we say today is only an inadequate expression of what we carry in our hearts. Words pale in the shadow of grief; they seem insufficient even to measure the bravery Michael shown in his last days he was with us. His true testimony will not be in the words we speak, but in the way his family is living their lives in the fight against this scourge of a disease and in the way he fought to the end with dignity and purpose and yielding to the struggle surrounded by his family and bathed in serenity.

Yet his wife, Dr. Dawn Estelle, his son's Yukon (11), Magnum (8) and Ruger (6) and especially his daughter, Winter may release their grief but are not about to yield in the fight against cancers. No, from the example set by Team Winter we are all shown a light on a pathway to a world free of these life robbing diseases.

Won't you join me and them in this noble effort and leave a message of encouragement or shared sorrow at AthletesForACure.ning.com? Won't you strap on your goggles, mount your bike, lace your shoes and take up the battle station in a fight that affects us all?

Godspeed Michael and here's wishing strength and friendship to Dawn, Yukon, Magnum, Ruger, and Winter and those that love him.
