I have lived in Gainesville, Florida since 1987 when I came here to attend graduate school. However, I gave up molecular biology recently and I'm now working fulltime as a Firefighter/EMT in Dunnellon, Florida and as the volunteer leader of the Alachua County, Florida Fire Rescue Boat Team.
I have three grown children (two daughters and a son) and three grand children (two girls and a boy). I've given up on triathlons (they were too easy) and I now compete in Adventure Races with Team FigJam (www.teamfigjam.com) out of Orlando, Florida. You can contact me at markschweder@cox.net. markschweder@cox.net.
