A Friend Passes – Marc Becker

7 12 2009

I was riding my computrainer punishing myself with a 15k uphill timetrial – I had just finished and was warming down.   I surfed over to inside tri’s website and learned that a triathlete friend of mine passed away on Dec 4th.  Not sure what happend to Marc.    Marc and I exchanged a few emails over the past few years.  We met in 1993 after the worlds in Manchester – we decided to tour around the Loire valley in France.  We had a great time – we cycled around – visited many castles and stayed in great places.    I have some good picture I will post here soon.    I admired Marc for his entrepreneurial spirt and for his passion for the sport of triathlon.  He was a really strong biker.  

We really have to treasure our time here on this awesome planet and enjoy each other for the time we have.   I will try to do something for Marc’s young family.  Peace be with you Marc – you are missed!!
