ESPN pays some tribute to the life of Jesse Marunde

Not a huge ESPN fan, but let's face it, they do cover sports well (as well as scandals :( )

At any rate, I found this article and thought the BEYOND STRONG readers might like it: http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=obits/marunde/071227

Outstanding, and you can't help but be choked up at the end. I think Jesse Marunde is someone who achieved immortality, something we all hope for. When we are long gone, the stories of Jesse will carry on through the ages, passed on through videos, pictures, and stories from the strongest men in the world.

Squats and deadlifts tomorrow, back to the basement o' pain and 17 weeks to the IPA Iron Horse. I have some lofty goals, but I am taking it one day at a time.
