Fearless factor: I was 17 when I joined the military, which took a lot of guts. Basic training was a crazy experience--I've never been screamed at so many times in my life!

Fun factor: I'm in the Hash House Harriers. It's a running-and-drinking club that meets every week. We follow a chalk trail through several miles of fields and forests to a keg, where we drink and sing. It's a great way to blow off steam.
