My brother and I never had a great relationship. There was no big fight that pushed us apart but over the years as colleges, jobs, and geographic locations separated us, our relationship became distant. I know from others that this is not unique.
About 13 years ago I sent an email to my brother that changed everything. The email was simple and was a direct result of the 9/11 terrorist attacks on NYC - "I am running the LA marathon. Will you run with me?" His response was also simple - "I'm in!" The rest of the story is one of a deep brotherhood bond that has taken us to the depths of the Grand Canyon, across 100 mile ultra-marathon runs, to the tops of mountains, and to family gatherings with more to talk about then just the weather.
We just finished writing a book about the crazy events we have done together and the changes it made in our lives. The point we wanted to make in the book is that just saying YES is all it took for us and if you take YOUR TURN and JUST SAY YES great things will happen.
