The Ragnar Relay: 200 Miles Can Test Your Friendships, Fitness and Desire

Physical education was the best and worst class I took in middle and high school. On one hand, I figured, “Are you kidding me? I get an easy A for playing basketball, softball, dodgeball, flag football and I get to watch ‘Remember The Titans’ over-and-over again when inclement weather strikes.”

I’m No Albert Pujols, But I’m an Athlete; And You Can Be One Too

I’ll never forget the day I was cut from Murrieta Valley High School’s baseball team. I can tell you the date: Dec. 2, 2005. Just getting off the phone with my dad, I rode shotgun in my mom’s Ford Explorer as I arrived at school at 7 a.m. I probably rolled my eyes as Mom said, “Make good choices” or, “I love you” too loud. I shut the door with my black JanSport backpack slung over my right shoulder.
