Things You Should Know

There are many things you should know. Among them, the following:

Kennett Peterson does a fine job of introducing his readers to the new and improved Hagens Berman squad. It's going to be an exciting year for my alma mater, and Kennett's Moby-Dick-length blog posts should be there to guide you through the year.

Lastly, my current teammate Ben Chaddock has been very productive over on his blog. Ben is leaner than I've ever seen him, and he's had a really steady winter of training. I can't wait to see what Mighty Mouse is capable of this year.
