Octoberfest Marathon 2010

Posted by domforth On May- 20 - 2010

We did it! In just over 3:45 we completed a grueling 26.2 Marathon in Spring Lake, MI. The conditions were horrendous with torrential downpours delaying the start of the race by over an hour. This rolling hill course was TOUGH. Forthy placed 3rd in Mens 25-29 Age Group. His running partner Bref Mchugh ranked 2nd.

Buenos Aires

Posted by domforth On Feb - 28 - 2010

Buenos Aires was brilliant! From the Relocetta and visiting the final resting place of Evita to cycling through the streets of Boca, San Telmo and Puerto Madero to two of the best steak dinners of my life - just about to head out for some Tango lessons tonight before the Tango show and a trip to Uruguay tomorrow... well be back in BA in time for the River Plate match on Sunday!

Gasparilla 2010

Posted by domforth On January - 29 - 2010

Land, ho! Hoist the mizzen n set sail for Tampa! Shouts from the legendary pirate Jose Gaspar and his band of marauding buccaneers will ring out across the waters of Hillsborough Bay as they return to invade the City of Tampa. On Saturday, January 30th, at 11:30 a.m., the world's only fully-rigged pirate ship, the Jose Gasparilla, will magically appear at the south end of Hillsborough Bay. A multitude of pleasure crafts, all intent on defending the city, will boldly sail forth to meet the ship. But quickly seeing the error of their ways, they turn to join forces with the Captain and his Krewe’s flotilla. The colorful Gasparilla Flotilla then makes its way into Seddon Channel. The Gasparilla Invasion has begun!

John Forth Tribute

Posted by domforth On August - 05 - 2009

Full tribute to the original Forthy. He was an absolute legend and we will never forget him!! I'm just so grateful to have had such a wonderful brother. Full of so much character and personality – always making me laugh. We were both afforded similar opportunities in life but the one thing I had in life that John didn't, was him as my older brother. And I attribute so,so much of my success to John. He was brilliant. In John I had both sides to the perfect role model - a brother who was able to teach me what to do and the way to live my life … As Thomas Campbell once said.... 'to live in hearts we leave behind. Is not to die.'

R.I.P. John Forth: 1979 - 2009

Posted by domforth On July - 26 - 2009

Devastated is an understatement. I am truly shocked and saddened at the news that my brother John passed away in his sleep Sunday morning. The preliminary cause of death seems to be "coronary atheroma"... More to follow...

Tampa Bay

Peru, South America 2008

Posted by domforth On Sep - 12 - 2008

No visit to Peru is complete without a visit to Machu Picchu. Located high in the Andean Mountains not visible from the valley below, this city has been re-discovered in 1911 by Hiram Bingham. Besides the fascinating Inca architecture and scale of this site, Machu Picchu owns much of its glory to the unique location. Every time you enter the city, you cannot help but gasp. The Lost City of the Incas, Machu Picchu...
