NO Coffee November!!!

Well, in 3 days it will be done.  At the end of October, I embarked on the challenge of not drinking coffee for the month of November.  Not that I’m an obsessive coffee drinker, I wanted to reset my body. Over the last few months, I noticed an increase in my coffee drinking.  It’s funny […]

“Diversity” & “Inclusion” More Than Buzz Words in Athlete Representation
