took 1st overall in a half-mile ocean race this morning... i'm a sprinter in the pool. butterfly and freestyle, so i usually enter these races in the 1-mile and finish somewhere in the top third or top half, but i never win. me and endurance events aren't really pals... but i was talking to a teammate before the race and he said, "dude, you should just enter the half-mile and sprint. i think you'd win." sounded like a good idea. so i did just that. boom! even raced out of the water and broke through the tape haha. all the open water events i've done I'd never done that before. gotta be honest. felt very cool. and the two best parts were that I had my daughter with me cheering as i crossed the finish line and i got to spend the weekend with my "other" parents from growing up, my best friend's mom and dad who have always treated me like a son. shout out to Mr. & Mrs. C for the good luck! #swimming #swimmer #masterswimming #swimtraining #swimlife #oceanswim #swimmersofinstagram #swimfast #swimfit #poolworkout #butterflystroke #freestyle #triathlete #endurancetraining #fitnessmotivation #athletelife #trainhard #fitover40 #menshealth #booksandbiceps #midlifemale 09 Aug 2026

I was swimmin’ in Memphis… swimmin’ with my feet 10 feet in the pool… hahaha… this sounds great in my head… whenever I travel, especially on a hectic book tour I find the key to keeping my energy up is to stick with my workout routine. @gregscheinman and I always talk about how simplicity scales at Midlife Male. For me that means finding pools to swim in along the way. Shout out to the East Memphis YMCA for letting me get my practice in this morning. I haven’t swum inside an outdoor bubble since I was a kid. Brought me all the way back to my age group Swimming days. Now onto Oxford… 11 Nov 2026

Bear Brawl book tour stop number two: the phenomenal @novelmemphis in Memphis. This is easily one of the coolest bookstores I have ever been in. Just signed a huge stack of books, slapped the autographed copy stickers on the covers, and watched them get placed on the shelf to bash and brawl all the other books in the store. We are off to a tremendous start. Tomorrow, we hit up, Oxford, Ole Miss, Square books, and the iconic Rowan Oak Museum. And I’m pumped to hang with my buddy Ace. 10 Nov 2026

Could an elite UFC heavyweight survive a hand-to-claw brawl against a 500-pound apex predator? That’s the question former sportswriter @jon_finkel set out to answer in his new action-thriller, Bear Brawl and the research behind it will blow your mind. In today’s edition of The Fox Local Book Club, I chatted with Jon to break down the story of Brick Bridger: a former UFC champion driven to track down and fight a rogue black bear with his bare hands. Jon didn't dream up this brutal scenario in a gym. It was sparked by an innocent question from his 9-year-old son while staring at a "Beware of Bear" sign in Yellowstone. If you had zero weapons, how many seconds are you lasting against a black bear? Read the book and learn how to SURVIVE! #FoxLocalBookClub #BearBrawl #JonFinkel #FOX13Tampa #TampaBayReads #ThrillerBooks #UFC #ManVsWild #BooksAndBiceps #MustReadFiction #Bookstagram 10 Nov 2026

BOOM! NEW TRAILER: BEAR BRAWL, T-MINUS 3 DAYS: Part First Blood and part Jaws, I promise to take you on a blockbuster adventure with heart-pounding scenes, humor, heart, bear history, William Faulkner (you’ll see), and family. You’re dropped into the action from the first sentence and the pages fly by, covering tracking, training, fighting, philosophy, pain, grief, love and a cast of unforgettable characters you’ll root for like you’re watching your favorite action movie. The plot is everything you want in an action thriller: When a rogue, massive black bear kills Brick Bridger’s mom, the former wrestling champion & UFC fighter enlists the help of a zoologist and his old wrestling coach to study, search for and fight the bear to get revenge. No guns, no weapons; just a fist-to-paw brawl that ends when only one man or animal is left standing. 07 Nov 2026
