Core

This summer I am working with Dr. Shane at Core Chiropractic.  Shane specializes in helping people with back or neck without using medications via adjustments, massages and DMS.  Core focuses on the athletic community in Orange County.  Many mountain bikers and triathletes of the recreational level and professional level use Core Chiropractic on a regular basis.  One of Shanes most well known athletes is Brian Lopes.  I am helping Shane market Core to the athletic community and also do some hands on work using the DMS.  I will also be VO2MAX testing at Ladera Cyclery.  This is great for athletes looking to see what kind of shape they are in or looking to improve their training.  

Shane sponsors many of the top mountain biking and running shops in south Orange County.  
Working with Shane at Core will be great for me to be active in the local mountain bike and triathlete community in Orange County.

Back in CA

I have just finished my second year of college at Arizona State.  I am now home in California for the summer.  It feels great to be back home, with my family and old friends.  It also feels really great to be out of the desert and near the ocean with the moist cool ocean breezes.  

I have a very busy summer ahead of me involving mountain bike racing, triathlons, working at Core Chiropractic and a summer school class. 

 I joined Capo Masters swim program (located at JSerra High School) to keep up my swimming and meet some new athletes.  Its a faily new masters program but the swimmers there are excellent.  The coach is great with lots of triathlon experience involving over 10 Ironmans.  I will try and attend atleast 3 swims per week.  Joining the swim program will be a great motiviation to keep me swimming and push me to be a faster swimmer.  

Many other things going on this summer that will posted later....!
