Lunch with Lew, the AquaJogger guy

Had a lovely lunch today with Lew Thorne, the CEO of AquaJogger. Lew contacted me a while ago - he's an avid GTDer (he had both my books with more underlines and highlights than anyone I think I've ever seen!) His son lives in Ojai and is getting married today, so he happened to be in town and looked me up. Lew's in his 60's, but still runs hurdles (something about those Eugene, Oregon folks...!) The AquaJogger looks like a great device for non-impact training in the water. He's still in ramp mode, looking for a way to leverage the product and brand now that it's proven itself. Delighted to hear how GTD impacted his ability to get it off the ground.

Hi David, you've put on weight ;-). Hope all is well. Perhaps I'll catch you the next time you're in Beantown.

Best, Mark

PS I'm still recommending GTD to friends and strangers.

Impacted: wedged or pressed closely so as to be immovable.

I'm a huge fan of the GTD system, and language too. This is one of those words that people use without really knowing the meaning.

Teeth get impacted.
