Success! Young injured worker Jessica Beauregard and me, after my last High-Five of the day
It’s been a crazy few weeks! It started with an amazing trip to Toronto for two presentations to the RBC Capitol Markets group and a visit to Niagara Falls. Straight off the airplane in Kelowna we (Lacey and I) drove to an epic camping zone literally a few hundred kilometers from the nearest civilization. What a trip, from the center of the universe to the middle of nowhere.
Up next was the GUINNESS WORLD RECORD™ attempt for the most High-Fives in 24 hours. As I’m sure you’re aware, I was able to smash the old record by nearly three times! read more

It’s wild to think that it’s already August and in less than a month’s time I will be back on snow at some remote ski hill in South America. In the meantime I have a few days to charge my battery for what’s is proving to be a very exciting month ahead.
On August 27, I’ll be in Vancouver to attempt to set a new GUINNESS WORLD RECORD™ for the most High 5’s in 24 hours. The event is part of the Raise your Hand summer campaign that educates young workers about their right to work in a safe environment. read more

First day at the beach yesterday… warm weather & fresh water = good times! It’s a bit late in the season to be claiming it’s the first day of summer; however, the late start has complemented my full-on work/training schedule quite nicely.
The latest rush of activity started in Abbotsford, with a presentation for Fix Auto — sharing some of my Paralympic moments and reminding them of the power of community. From there I went to Vancouver to visit friends at GF Strong… the key rehab center for many traumatic injuries and my old stomping grounds. read more

Trying to find some downtime after the Paralympics
Hey World!
So this will be my first ever blog that I’ve done… pretty sweet if you ask me. I’m guessing this will be some form of high-tech social networking where I can keep in touch with those interested in what my life is like. Without further ado… here I am!
It’s been roughly two months since the 2010 Paralympic Games have come to a close, and my life has not slowed down at all. Since the Games I’ve had the good fortune to be able to travel all over B.C. as a professional speaker, and share my stories and experiences with a wide variety of new and old friends.
