Red Fang - "Prehistoric Dog" Relapse Records

Less than 24 hours away!!

As you may or may not know, tomorrow is a big day for me. I’ve been raising money for the St. Baldrick’s Foundation which sponsors research grants for childhood cancer. Last year alone they were able to fund 14 million dollars’ worth of cancer research to help find cures and improve the quality of life for patients and survivors. The team I am on is trying to raise $3,000 and are only a couple hundred away. I know that many of you have children or your life has been touched by cancer in some way. My family has had its fair share from my Mother and Grandmother to my brother-in-law. It has also taken 3 of my friends in the last year all of which lost their battles to brain cancer. It is a horrible disease and can be particularly hard on the youngest among us. I will be shaving my head tomorrow at 4:30 at the RBC center, and standing with the children who have to fight the real battle every day. I know that most of you will not be able to attend but I would ask you to consider a donation to St. Baldrick’s. If you would like to donate please click on the link below. Thank you all for your support!

St. Baldrick's - Help battle childhood cancer!

I know that I have been slack and haven't posted in about 2 weeks and for that I am very sorry. The good news is the weight is still coming off and I am still running but I hit a rough spot in the last week. My youngest son got strep throat and scarlet fever which he was kind enough to share with me. So a shot in the butt and some Advil and I am feeling better. I have been working very hard towards raising money for St. Baldrick's in the last few weeks. St. Baldrick's is a wonderful charity that helps raise awareness and money to battle childhood cancer. I feel very fortunate that I have been able to be part of this organization and have received a lot of support from many friends and family members and people I don't even know! Currently my team has raised over $2000 for the upcoming event on February 22nd. If you feel so inclined please consider donating to St. Baldrick's and help us work towards ridding the world of cancer! You can do so by simply clicking on my link: http://www.stbaldricks.org/participants/mikehutch76

Greatest rock and roll song of all time! From the Best Band in History, The Rolling Stones!

St. Baldrick's, Join Chris Gavin and I!!!!!!

You heard it right - I'm shaving my head in solidarity with children who have cancer and typically lose their hair during treatment, while raising critical funds for childhood cancer research!
In the US, more children die of childhood cancer than any other disease. Please make a donation on my behalf to support childhood cancer research so that all children diagnosed with cancer will have a better chance for a cure. I'm trying to raise $1000.00 for my team, please help me to reach this goal!

More Metal madness from my iPod! This is the first Slayer song I ever heard. It only took one song and I was hooked.

A little behind! 202 days to go.

I'll been busy for the last few nights and haven't gotten around to writing at all. To be honest I just wanted to goto bed early! Anyway, the training and weight loss are both going pretty darn well. I'm down to 240 or 241 pounds (from 253) depending on the scale that I'm on and I have officially run over 4 miles multiple times! I really am shocked that 16 days ago I was just starting to exercise and now I am running 4+ miles in around 9 minute miles. I guess it was the right time and I was in the right frame of mind to get started back on the road to a healthy body. I really need to give my wonderful wife credit. She is the one that has gotten me so focused. Her support for my leaving early in the morning and working late has been amazing! Actually she is amazing!
So I'm pretty sure that I can finish the Warrior Dash now I want to beat all my friends! Thats going to be a tall order because pretty much the fastest guy on my High School Football team is running it with me and the most in shape friend I have is also running. Well, I guess you have to have high goals! Run with me on August 27th in Huntersville, NC in the Warrior Dash: http://www.warriordash.com/register2011_carolinas.php
