The Oakley Pro Bali begins in just a few short hours, and I for one am excited to see what this wave will have in store. It will be the first time an ASP World Championship Tour event has been held in Bali, and the pros have to be pretty stoked to have such potential on hand for the midway point of the season. I know I’m stoked to see how this new spot treats the pros, and how well my Fantasy... 

You may know him as Steve Starnes, but I call him “Coach.” That’s even how he’s listed in my cellphone directory. I met him five years ago when my daughter, Riley, was assigned to his YMCA soccer team. The poor guy volunteered to be in charge of a dozen 5-year-old girls who cared more about playing Disney princesses than playing sports. Talk about patience, I marveled at... 

Living on the Grand Strand brings a wonderful opportunity to see and treat individuals who live a healthy lifestyle.  Being an orthopedic physical therapist offers the opportunity to treat many repetitive strain injuries, many of which are related to the repetitive nature of running.  In this article, I will provide a brief description of some common running injuries and options for treatment. –    ... 

Well, we’ve had a month off since the last ASP World Tour contest, but that break ends when the Billabong Rio Pro begins its waiting period this Wednesday, May 8, and runs through May 19. The venue for the Rio Pro has moved a bit from last year, and will take place at Postinho and Arpoador. This will be the third change of venue over the last four years for this event, and that has made my job... 

I just had one of my best days in a long time, yet somehow it feels empty. Spending a sunny Mother’s Day at the beach with my wife and daughter and friends was a refreshing retreat from the cool and rainy weekends we’ve had all spring. But it was about the 10th year in a row I’ve spent the special day without seeing my mom. Distance, time and the real world have kept me from visiting... 

I find myself at a loss for words in the wake of the tragedy at the Boston Marathon , but did want to express and acknowledge what I’m certain are feelings that we all share: feelings of shock, concern and overwhelming sadness about the tragedy that occurred just steps away from the Iconic Boston Marathon Finish Line.  These feelings are not just from a runner’s perspective but America... 

Coastal Carolina’s decision to cut men’s track and field and cross country after next season may have come as a surprise to those who follow the Chants. After all, almost every announcement over the past decade has been about growth – an upstart football program, a new arena and other facilities, and even a new women’s lacrosse program. And, truth be told, all of those play... 

We don’t normally think of April as one of the more patriotic months of the year, but that is exactly what it has turned out to be. After twin explosions at the end of the Boston Marathon on April 15 claimed the lives of three people and injured hundreds more, we saw our fellow Americans – both first responders and bystanders on the street — band together to face yet another national... 

Some say Christmas is the “most wonderful time of the year” but many football fans agree that this week’s NFL Draft is pretty close. Many sports fans think that the NFL draft and signing day for college football are national holidays. Football has become such a major part of our lives, we can not help but tune in. We want to find out if our team or teams are going to pick up a... 

Don’t be alarmed if you are out this coming Sunday morning and see an invasion of pink clad, boa and tiara wearing runners invading North Myrtle Beach. The Divas Race series is making its annual visit to the Grand Strand this Friday April 26th through Sunday April 28th. This will be the third time the race series has come to North Myrtle Beach.  It is one of six races in the Divas Half Marathon...
