The Tri for Gey was yesterday morning. About 70 Tri for Gey team members swam/biked/ran the triathlon, which I understand to have been about 1/5th of the membership in the event. As you may recall, the purpose of the Team Gey's participation was to raise money to fight ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease), in honor of our good friend Professor Steve Gey. Steve continues to battle ALS, and we continue to support him.
Because I work for the Court, I may not fundraise. So, I did not compete in the Tri for Gey. Instead, I volunteered to create a training video for them. After several weeks of filming and many days of editing, the "teaser" version of that video is done. I plan to make a full version at a later date that focuses more on Steve generally; the "teaser" focuses on the Team and, by obvious connection, to Steve as the reason the Team exists. It is a blend of humor and sincerity. I hope you enjoy it.
Things that may be useful to know:
- Curtis Bridgeman is a professor at the College of Law
- The Red Hills triathlon involves swimming 1/3 of a mile, biking 16 miles, and then running 3.1 miles
- Barbara is a team member of Team Gey

If that law thing doesn't work out, maybe you can try a career as a movie producer.
Good work son.
