Year of the Eppersons 2013 review- Mike

Here are a few of the accomplishments that have made this past year awesome!

-Cycling: I was able to ride 1,806 miles with 66,280 ft of climbing. My longest ride was the Tour De Paws which was 62 miles in 3 hours and 22 min.

-Running: although running is my second sport, I was still able to run a total of 96 miles on the year and I was able to finish in the top 3 of my age group at the Sherman College Commit to be Fit 5k run with a time of 22 min.














-Weight Loss: This year I decided that I cannot be a healthcare provider without being healthy myself so I decided to lose weight by simply using the Law of Thermodynamics. Energy In=Energy out I had great success and lost 30+ pounds :)













-Push Ups: To kick off my weight loss last new years I wanted to see if I could do 1000 push ups in 2 weeks. I did much better than that and decided to keep track of every push up I did this year. 2013 total equals 21,197!

-Published Article: From my work at Collage of Charleston we were able to published the results we were able to obtain in an article in the Journal of Organic and Biomolecular Chemistry.  Paper









- Traveling: We were able to do some traveling this year to scope out some possible future locations to settle down. We were able to travel from sea to shining sea to Las Vegas NV, Phoenix AZ, Las Angeles CA, and New York City NY.

- The most important and exciting thing that I have accomplished this year is the possibility of becoming a father this coming June. I could not be more excited!

Bring on 2014!! Happy New year!
