My Life (Redirected)
      About Me
      I'm Mike, the owner of an athletic development company called HPC. I recently quit my financially secure day job to 1) finish my PhD and 2) take my business full time. It's a risky venture and a major redirection (hence the blog name) in my life. I love food, hate sleep, and want to be my own boss. I have mild OCD and ADD but I will always post, so please come back if you are interested in following this venture and maybe picking up some random bits along the way.

    Well, its been over a month since I quit my job at West Point. For the first 4 weeks, I was mostly on the road and more busy than at any other time of the year. First I was in Columbus, OH at the USATF Jr. National Champs where my company was running the High Performance Center for the emerging junior athletes there. Then I had 2-3 days off before heading out to Eugene, OR for 2 weeks for the Olympic Trials. I had 3 athletes competing out there and HPC was running the High Performance Center there too. After Olympic Trials, I had another couple days off and then headed off to Houston, TX to teach the biomechanics section of the Level 1 & 2 curriculum and the sprints section of the Level 2 section of USATF’s coaches education program.  Since then I’ve come back to OH where I’ve made a temporary move. I’ve been busy catching up with life, redoing and making a couple websites, handling enough coaching and consulting work to keep food on the table and most importantly, working on my dissertation. So far, things have been good.
