:: PLAY IT COOL ::

The David Suzuki Foundation has started a campaign called "Play it Cool". They're encouraging athletes to go carbon neutral by off-setting their sport-related carbon emissions. I'm stoked to be involved, and off-settting was super easy with Planetair. I think it's important to take some responsibility for the impact we're having on the environment, while also making an effort to limit that impact as best we can. I'd encourage other athletes, and everyone to consider off-setting their carbon emissions. Carbon off-sets also make groovy green gifts!

The Great Florida Spring Training Group of 2008 has adjourned! Everyone has domestic qualifications and continental qualifiers to focus on for the next few weeks, mine are in Gainesville, Georgia the first weekend of May. Our 10+ weeks together were productive and fun, a big vankayak.com sized thank you to the guys, and to Eirik and the Norwegians, who didn't make it to the photoshoot. Big ups to Anders for another wicked camp. Good luck at Euros fellas!

::SPORTSNET BLOG - BOYCOTT BANTER::

Blog #4 is up on Sportsnet.ca... have a read, let me know what you think. A few people have already posted (not-so-nice) comments on the site. I don't feel shameful, I feel like a grown-up, and I think my priorities are straight. I'd like to thank my fans for their kind words! HA!
