Tugs

In 2004, Tyler Hamilton, who was frequently called the toughest man in cycling and who would soon be the Olympic time-trial champion, wrote this tribute to his recently departed dog, Tugboat. It's quite touching.

    This was sweet and sad. It reminded me a bit of a book I read recently, "Marley and Me," which you might enjoy.

  2. Yep, Alison read Marley and Me over an 18-hour period, which included 8 hours of sleeping, a few weeks ago. She loved the book, and I'm hoping she'll put up a review on the blog.
