Jon,
You helped make me appreciate all of the little things in life. Thank you for the wisdom and inspiration you've left for all of us. The world is a better place because you were a part of it. You will be terribly missed.
RIP Jon "Blazeman" Blais August 30, 1971 - May 27, 2007
When I first heard about the Escape from Alcatraz Triathlon, I thought the swim portion was absolutely insane and anyone who swam it was nuts. It's funny how things can change. One of my biggest fears in life is now one of my most incredible joys. This race (especially the swim) is truly the funnest, yet most challenging triathlon's, I've ever competed in. Below is my journal on the incredible experience. This year's race is on Sunday, June 10th, 2012.

Thanks for sharing the clip. Every time I finish a 1/2 iron or iron, I do the Jon roll at the finish. Truly an inspiration for everyone (athletes and non-athletes) to just go for it.
Wow....I'm new to tris and have never heard of Jon. What an incredible person. Thanks for posting.
Thanks for sharing. He's definitely an inspiration and makes me appreciate my health.
