However, with the popularity of SUP I feel compelled to write about how only the real experienced should venture down. Read more about what to know and how to be safe so your first experience is a good one. A hui’ ho! See you on the water!

You Want It? You Have to Train For It! Kevin Vangritis and Jenny Ryan Wanted It and Got It

I really admire those who have the “vision” so-to-speak on how they already see themselves winning. I know winning isn’t everything but from a trainer’s and competitor perspective, it sure feels good! Get inspired and read this. It just might be you that I write about! Put your mind in a place of success BEFORE you begin your training session and see and be the result. Suzie Cooney
