Michael T. Halligan, the story of a wayward Infrastructure Architect

Filed undersoma

Greetings! Thanks for stopping into my little corner of the web. I'm a, 31-year old entrepreneur finding my way in the world. I've been working in the "tech sector" (whatever that means) ever since I first interned at EDS in my early teens. As an employee I've worked for some notable start-ups including idealab! and Napster. As an entrepreneur I've started a couple of consulting companies, one of which (BitPusher) is a rapidly growing managed services provider who manages web applications for many notable start-ups including Sendgrid, Posterous, and Wufoo. I sold my half of BitPusher in 2009 and I'm currently consulting through DNSWorks as I decide what I want to do next. I'm open to entertaining anything interesting, with a hope that it's interesting enough that I would want to join as a co-founder rather than as an employee.

When I'm not working (and lately I'm not working a lot, because I'm having more fun exercising) I'm exercising. I love to walk and swim, and spend several hours doing both each day. I also read, take photos, play bass, travel, and cook. You know, the usual life experience.

I thought it would be fun to walk 18 miles in the rain.

Monday was a fun day, warm and rainy. Perfect conditions for a hike I had been planning for a couple of weeks, walking to Ocean Beach from SOMA by way of the coastal trails. All in all I logged 18 miles on my feet and loved every second of it. This is a fantastic way to se the city, and I hope everyone who reads this will put their comfortable shoes on and head right out! Note there are two embedded strava walks because I haven't figured out an easy way to separate riding muni from walking in the GPX files.

So this fat hacker decides to walk up Twin Peaks.

Last friday I decided to walk to Twin Peaks from my home in SOMA. Afterwards I just decided to walk up every peak, choose a landmark I've never stood foot on, and walk to it. This walk is the 22km result.
