When we think of "tough" we think of Boxing or MMA John Wayne,but the real bad asses are ppl like Jon Blais who show courage and will in a fight they know they have no chance of winning and there's no traineror ref  to toss in the towel

blazemanmom, after seeing and hearing the story of Jon at Rev3 and Timberman and getting into the tri world this summer, I don't go a day without thinking of him. Stay strong, keep inspiring, the Blais family is making a difference in the world, no doubt about that.

I survived a bad car wreck & have a spine full of screws & rods. Because of the Warrior Poet's story, I found determination and a fight inside me that I never knew I had. I finished Ironman Augusta 70.3 this weekend; my first triathlon ever because of your son's amazing story. Thank you for touching my life Blazeman! -Brian
