British Endurance Athlete

Allow me to introduce our friend Brandon. Did I mention that he is a British endurance athlete? Brandon and his wife Ashley are very good friends of ours, and they moved to the UK a couple years ago (Brandon also works for BP). He flew back to Alaska in July for a "vacation" that consisted of cycling 400 miles with 19,000' of elevation gain in 24 hours and 56 minutes. We are very proud of him for completing the race with a great time and qualifing for the RAAM (legendary Race Across AMerica endurance race). Here are some pictures of Brandon at our house the day after the race:
