Jim lives in Colorado. As such, he’s generally annoying. He doesn’t eat sugar or carbs. He bikes to work and runs up 14,000-foot mountains each week for exercise. He has zero body fat and looks like a model from the cover of one of those fitness magazines. Jim is the type of man who may as well just spell his name “Gym.”
