Happy Birthday Chris

Above all else to today
It's my friend's birthday.
Chris Malatesa -my childhood friend is celebrating
a day I feared he may never reach.
Earlier in the year I read an e-mail from a friend saying that he was hospitalized
with a serious head injury.
Not to go into details - Chris has fought like no one I've ever seen fight.
A daily battle that I thought of when I rode and suffered in training.
Chris and his strength gave me that extra toughness to push through.

So Chris - Happy Birthday and thanks for being such a friend.
