I think everyone had a "Darrin Hudson" in their lives. Darrin Hudson was in my high school, back in Marlboro, NJ. You know, that person that you had to one-up all the time. Didn't matter what it was: Gear, hair, grades, sports, whatever...it was ON. Well for Darrin and I...it was kicks. Plain and simple. Oddly enough, in a school with over 1000 kids, me and him were the only 2 really into sneakers back then. This is my blog dedicated to Darrin. This is to tell Darrin that I'm still out there, and if he wants to battle, here it is son!! Bring it!! I've since lost touch with Darrin, but thanks to him, you all get to check out the kicks I have amassed over the years. So it is here, that I will archive every pair of shoes I own. It’ll include detailed photos, a grading system, a little tidbit behind each one and every single one will be available for purchase. (Simply POST A COMMENT with your offer). Some other little goodies sprinkled throughout also. Even if I updated a different shoe every week, it would take me about 3 years to complete this project. So sit back and enjoy! The project begins January 1st, 2006...

RUN or RIDE.

Back in Japan once again. I think I'm in double digits for Japan trips this year by now. I have no idea anymore. My body has no idea what time zone it lives in anymore. Japanese customs officials look at me weird. And I am on a first name basis with the Hudson News lady at JFK.
But alas, great things come to those who hustle and I am hoping with Reed Space's (site update!) Japan opening next Saturday...the work will be worth it.





I've been back on the workout tip a bit and took up running again as the weather finally cooled in NYC. It also helps to condition me for my fixed bike training sessions with Hiroshi and Kazu. (Finally learned to skid stop!) So after being away from my Nike+ Competition entitled The Hundreds (first to 100 miles wins)...I see there are a lot of new comers AND we have a winner. Congrats to Jerry (Staple) for hitting the century mark. Morgan (Reed Space) is a close second. Amanda (Jerry's better half) and Stash round out the top 4. I trail AK (Burton) by a shoelace! Hawaii Mike (LTD Mag), Iz (Nike ID 255) and Kevin Poon (CLOT) round out the bottom half. C'mon Poon! Get out there on Causeway Bay and haul some ass!


A mini blowfish chopstick holder can only mean one thing: BLOWFISH FOR DINNER! Nowhere else but Japan...
