A thought for the team

Dan,
I was just reading about Team K-Man and a thought occurred... 
If we are looking to help/motivate others that have had WLS realize endurance goals, maybe the Team's endurance athletes can go and speak to WLS support groups throughout the country.  Perhaps even become a part of the pre-briefs that so many doctors make madatory before their patients have surgery.   The Team can be administrated from one central point, but be scheduled and deployed to events near a respective athlete's geographic area.  Could be at own expense at first and grow from there.
Is this something that you had maybe envisioned?

I think it's a great idea! I think we need to get a solid year or so of exposure and results as a group, then we can explore that option for sure! Longevity = Credibility, and I think this is something that could deffinately be a GREAT opportunity. Let's keep this idea at the forefront of long-term goals for the team and possibly discuss on our next chat session...

This is a great idea.  I currently do this for my surgical group in Delaware.  I speak about 10 times per year (those are scheduled and I do another 5 drop-ins or last minute requests).  People are mostly amazed at what we have been able to accomplish.  Sharing is easy.

 who wouldn't be amazed - I am definitely amazed when I read your stories.  I was wondering if what I was doing was even possible until I found you guys :)
