The Executive Decision

"I made an Executive Decision"

This quote was used the other day with a bit of Sarcasm which I guess is always the case when this is said. I know I've probably used that exact quote a few times in my life under frustration.  Let's really dig into the comment.


  1. Decisions - Some are easy, some are hard, some have a deadline and some need the sign off from the person in charge. 
  2. Executives - Make good decisions, bad decisions but the good ones always take ownership of the decision they make. 
  3. I made an Executive Decision - If it's the wrong decision, will you own up to it or will you also say "I made that decision because I couldn't wait for the Executive to get off his/her ass to make it"? 
It's a good life....

The Pre Event Routine




For a long event this is the routine. I start this 4 nights before the race and eat this each night before bed.


  1. Trader Joes Gluten free oats roughly 1/2 cup.
  2. Apple Sauce roughly a table spoon
  3. Jam roughly a teaspoon
  4. Nutzo roughly a teaspoon
Mix eat, repeat the next night.

It's a good life....
