His wife also tells the Times reporter: "The first time I went to a race, I was not prepared to see what happens to his mind. We nearly split up."
My favorite quote, though, is probably this one about Mt. Stol: "Three years ago, I got angry at the mountain. I climbed it 38 times in two months." Quite frankly, it’s depressing that this man struggles to remain financially solvent.
