Thanks!!! All seriousness, I will do my best to regularly blog useful and sometimes entertaining information that can help you increase your performance, reach your fitness goals and live a healthier lifestyle.
A lot has gone on since my last blog and I thought I would give you a quick update:
- I took my first high school coaching job and our lacrosse team won the state championship! More importantly, all 13 of my seniors went to college. Great experience watching kids become successful as a result of sacrifice and hard work. Here is a picture of our rings. Can someone say bling, bling?
- I had a rather successful first year in rugby and since have taken over as the club's vice president and performance coach. Our team has grown tremendously in size and we have turned the corner in performance. With new coaches, new administration and a new, bad ass logo, the Phoenix Rugby Club is starting to turn some heads.

- I had a busy summer traveling both for rugby and as a coach for Force Lacrosse, a travel all-star team in AZ. Force came out of the gates strong by beating a lot of well established east coast teams, which has lead to several players getting actively recruited within the NCAA.
- In September, I spent 2 weeks in New Zealand for the 2011 Rugby World Cup. I can talk about this for hours. But in a nutshell, it was one of the greatest experiences of my life. I met incredible people, drank and ate amazing food, got a tattoo, and got to watch some of the world's most elite athletes. You can not put a price tag on the experience I had traveling around that country with some of my teammates.
Again, thanks for being patient and supportive! I look forward to helping you reach you goals!
