This record breaking attmept is crazy! Two guys named Chris and Dean just finished an attempt to break the Guiness Record of most miles run on a treadmill in 24 hours.

Their site lists all the details along wth pictures from the event. That’s darn near 6 marathons in one day. I stand in awed amazement. I’d be lucky to be able to do one marathon in a day (becaues it could very well take me that long to walk it…)

They collected money for charity during the event – the YouthAids organization benefitted from this grand gesture.

Did they do it, or did they miss the mark? Visit the site to find out…

Seth Godin, author of Purple Cow, Permission Marketing, and Free Prize Inside (among many other fine books) has a new eBook available on his site. It is called BullMarket 2004. It’s a sourcebook and compendium all wrapped up in one.

If you are looking to grow your business, grow your knowledge, or just want to be kept on the edge of the wave, download it here. Best of all, it’s FREE!

It is THE place to go for help and advice on how to grab the current Bull Market by the horns and create your own Purple Cow. There’s a list of the most amazing and helpful blogs that exist right now. Many I read currently, and many I plan to read after having seen them mentioned here.

There is also listed a virtual slew of freelance and consulting companies that will put themselves on the line to help their clients become unique.

I mention this for two reasons. First, Seth’s knowledge, ingenuity, and experience are unrivaled in today’s economy. Second, Blue Needle was chosen to be listed in this year’s edition.

I’ve put a lot of time and effort into growing Blue Needle from an idea into a business. I have a LONG way to go, but I am committed to the long haul.

To grow my business, I must grow those of my clients. That’s the toughest part. I’m responsible for not only my success, but the success of others as well. Even though this is the most difficult part of running your own business, it is by far the most rewarding as well. I love to help others, and to help them succeed is even better.

This is a big step forward for Blue Needle, and I couldn’t be more excited. Here’s to another successful year, and much growth in the future.

Now, it’s time for me to get back to work…
