A few years ago, I was your typical office-worker: stressed out, uneven energy, overweight, and inconsistent complexion. Now I'm just your typical 28-year old urban hunter-gatherer on a quest to be healthy, and having a few adventures along the way. See my full bio.
Novak Djokovic just won Wimbledon. He beat Rafael Nadal in the finals -- the fifth time he has done so in a finals match this year. I blogged Djokovic's progress in the French Open after learning he had gone gluten-free before his ascendancy to the #1 player in the world. This time, I watched silently as he progressed through the Wimbledon bracket. The commentators noted how often Djokovic won long points (of course, the winner always tends to win more points).
This year Djokovic is 48-1, has won two Grand Slams, is now ranked #1 in the world, and has beat the top players in the world along the way. Maybe now we'll hear more about his diet.

I watched some of the final.
I watched some of the final. I am now a huge fan of Djokovic. He makes me want to take tennis lessons. I hope he never loses anoter match... maybe he will finish the year 100-1?
Loved this:Djokovic crouched
Loved this:Djokovic crouched on Center Court, reached down, plucked some blades of grass and shoved them in his mouth. "I felt like an animal. I wanted to see how it tastes. It tastes good," Djokovic said later, his eyes wide and his smile contagious. "It came spontaneously, really. I didn't plan to do it. I didn't know what to do for my excitement and joy."Found here: http://nbcsports.msnbc.com/id/43624367/ns/sports-tennis/
