Why will you win? I will not go onto a bridge right after
Dave says "don't go onto a bridge".
Why will you lose? I'll be missing my better half.
Not including your team, which team stands the best chance of winning?
Dave's parents. Very impressive performance last year (I should
know, I tried to trail them...).
What have you done to prepare for this race? I've
been to every part of NY. Only restaurants, but who's counting.
What do people tend to underestimate about you? My ability
to dunk.
For those that were in last year’s race…
…what was the best part of the race for you? Meeting
a lot of great people. I also dropped a few pounds...
…and what advice would you give to this year’s new
racers? Expect the unexpected.
What one song have you listened to the most in your lifetime?
Nothing jumps out at me. Probably a sitcom theme song like Curb Your Enthusiasm.
As a child, what did you want to be when you grew up (and how close
did you come)? I wanted to be in music. The farthest I made it
was to marching band.
What is the area of Manhattan that you know the best?
East 50's through 70's. Not coincidentally, the areas between work and
home.
Who probably looks better naked – Dan or Dave (remind yourself
who is organizing the teams before writing your response)? I'll
go with Barley.
Say something nice here about Dan and Dave: Great friends.
Great fun.
