A new challenge

In early 2010, 2 time Ironman and Cleveland area folk singer, Charlie Mosbrook suffered an incomplete spinal cord injury and underwent surgery to prevent further nerve damage. With current triathlon goals on hold due to neuropathy and impaired walking, Charlie works toward simple goals through physical therapy with the hopes of one day crossing another finish line.

On with the show

So as I am adjusting to life with a disability/injury I am making changes due to my physical limitations. The first thing I need to do is replace the sound system I use for open mikes and other gigs. It is a great system, but it is much to heavy for me. I have come up with a plan make it much more manageable. This means selling the old to purchase a new lighter one.
I also have some triathlon gear that will not be put to use any time soon. Wetsuits and GPS devices are not going to be used for a while. So I have decided to sell these as well.

While selling these belongings, I have become reminded of how different multi sports athletes and musicians can be. When an athlete expresses interest, they say " I will be there at 5PM". This is often without fail. When a musician expresses interest, they say, "I want it! I should be able to buy it the third wed. in June".
I guess this could also be an economic issue.
Both of these traits belong to me.
In any event, the wetsuits and HRM/GPS are sold while the PA remains.................
