Q: What are your plans for this weekend?
Wilson: Taking advantage of the long weekend to spend time with my family.
Q: What are you really looking forward to? Anything special planned?
Wilson: Since it is basketball season, I will be coaching my oldest son’s team and we are planning on heading to Washington, DC, to visit the Smithsonian.
Q: What do you like to watch and read on the weekend?
Wilson: Either reading to my kids or reading whatever non-fiction book of the moment. Right now I’m reading “Hero” about Lawrence of Arabia. Talk about an impressive guy. Also very illuminating about the Middle East.
Q: What workout routines or activities do you like to do on the weekend?
Wilson: I am often training for a race of some kind. Next up is the Indianapolis Half Marathon in May. I’m usually out the door running by 6:00am, and back in time to make pancakes for the kids.
Q: The thing that our readers would be most surprised you love to do on your weekends is…
Wilson: My wife is from Perth, Australia, and many a Sunday morning is spent Skyping friends and family across the Pacific.
Q: Best weekend ever?
Wilson: Any quick trip to go skiing. My family has a house in Summit County, Colorado, and we spend as much time there as possible.
Q: Guilty weekend pleasure?
Wilson: Too much coffee.
Q: Do you have any routine weekend chores?
Wilson: The usual: Dishes, laundry, admin, yard work when it’s warm.
Q: Must see weekend game?
Wilson: All sports -- with an emphasis on soccer and college football. My nephew is Stanford’s quarterback (ANDREW LUCK) so I follow the Cardinal closely during the football season, along with MLS and international soccer year round.
