Prof. Timothy Noakes author of the Lore of "Running" and "Water Logged" will be featured in the first of a three part series on hydration. He spoke with me from his home in Cape Town, South Africa and we address the issue of high school football pre-season practice, conditioning and contact practices during two a days. You will be surprised to learn that he thinks the reduction of contact is not needed. Find out why during our show. If you are a coach, I recommend you watch this video of a speech he gave on the belief in exceptional achievement at a TEDx Conference. This video is NOT about the book Waterlogged.

Also upcoming is a three part series with James Allworth, from his home in Canberra, Australia. He is one of three Harvard co-authors of the book "How Will You Measure Your Life." It is a New York Times Best Seller. He and Prof. Clay M. Christensen and Karen Dillon collaborated on it. This is one book that every high school or college coach should add to their must read list. Few jobs consume as much work, family and personal time the way coaching football does. The book will give you a new perspective and offer you choices you did not know you had.
