Alan Lebovitz is one of my oldest and dearest friends.  We went to Bright School together, played sports and went waterskiing as kids.  Alan has always been a terrific athlete and when I moved back to Chattanooga, Alan became a regular early on at the garage.  This year he has entered his midlife crisis and instead of buying a Porsche, he decided to do an Ironman.  While the garage is simply not the same without his everyday presence, I am very proud of Alan and wish him the very best in his Ironman.  Alan has gone "Lone Wolf" on us and is training for this race alone, sometimes waking up super early to get in long bike rides and still have time for his family.
