How a WF Master Student ‘actively recovers’ from chopping 36+ minutes off her time in a 75-kilometer winter quadrathlon; Padma crankin’ some sweet 3+ Waterfall Ice in Utah the other day…

Hi Steve,
Just had a look at your site. Great work man!
As we say out here in the streets, real recognize real…and I can surely see you too are a warrior of light and love.

I’m happy to have connected.
Namaste.
