LIFT is a web magazine for the adventurer in all of us (not necessarily the gym goer) -- successful men and women who work hard and play harder. Fitness isn’t about living at the gym, it’s about living at your peak, no matter what stands in your way. It’s about obeying the alarm clock, peeling yourself out of bed, and finding that extra hour most people think they’ll never have.

LIFT items are selected either by myself or by one of my guest editors. If you have a cool tip, please share it with me! And, no, you can't pay to be featured on LIFT. That's what advertising is for, and it's clearly labeled as such. I do not want to destroy the legitimacy, integrity, and fun of this blog.

For the most part, I take the photos ... but from time to time I use Getty Images, iStockphoto (where I am currently a stock photographer) and Bauer-Griffin.

BlogBurst.comLastly, this site is syndicated through Blogburst, so it's likely that you'll see LIFT on Fox News, Reuters, or USA Today.com.

I hope that you continue to enjoy LIFT. I look forward to publishing it.

Spot On: Know Your Place In The World

Comment1 Comment |
5036.jpgAdventure seekers can now leave a digital trail for friends back home to trace via SPOT Satellite Messenger. The GPS tracking device transmits pinpoint locations along with text messages -- emergency or otherwise -- to a website that captures real-time progress on Google Maps.

Want to see how it works: Accomplished sailor and navigator Zac Sunderland is currently using the bright-orange handheld to chart his attempt to become the first 16-year old (yes, 16-year old) to circumnavigate the globe. $169.99.

You should do a story on the kid you mention in your post. When's the last time you heard of a 16-year old traveling around the world?
