8 Shocking Revelations About Me

 

Since Pat kind of tagged me on this, here goes…

  1. I started working retail at the age of 14 (under the table as it contravened certain British child labor laws, ok all of them!).
  2. I have no middle name… some people think that’s strange.
  3. One of the reasons I’m a vegetarian is thanks to a summer job working in a sausage factory…
  4. I once had a bicycle disintegrate on me as I was riding it, thanks to the delayed reaction of WD40 on rust…
  5. In my final year of college, I lived over a newsagents and next door to a strip club – “The Piper Club”.
  6. My first job in the US was selling chocolates and ice cream in a strip mall.
  7. I became a naturalized US citizen the week after 9/11.
  8. I’m running in the Philly 1/2 marathon in 2 weeks, and the Marine Corps Marathon in 2 months, they will both be my first races at those distances. Somehow I’m also fitting the new soccer season in there as well (starting Sept. 8th)…

    Hey Simon,
    Thanks for participating – it’s always nice to gain a little insight into other bloggers! Good luck on the races. Sounds like it’s a good thing it’s not a bike race! :)
