Jen said she'd pass-on the message but imagine it got lost with time, you guys were gone for a good spell. By the way, what event are you doing in Brazil? I would love to follow your progress. Be safe.

I live in the same town (Boise, ID) as your teammate and followed you in Abu Dhabi last year, hourly through PQ this year and your recent Europe event. I was at the Moab event this year where you were competing and finished about an hour behind your team as a solo but did not have the chance to meet you. You two "Mike's" are my inspiration being in my mid-40's ... Hope all is well.
