    Favorite Math topic to teach
    Statistics, because students get to see first-hand how sampling (done with as least bias as possible) can lead to a deeper understanding of anything being studied.  Equations can be modeled around the data collected, then be used to make predictions around what is being studied.
     
    Favorite Non-Math related thing to do
    Mountain biking in summer, and skiing in winter.  Nothing else matters when you're hitting all your turns skiing or racing down a single track and hitting all the bends and dips in a trail perfectly.
