She has good insight into my performance personality, said Tricia.  We focused on where my challenges are in sport. She gave me concrete things to try in an effort to create an environment where I can be my best. <br>While in Colorado Springs, Tricia received active release therapy (ART) to help a long-time hamstring injury. Dr. Leahy created this approach to muscle healing which strips off scar tissue and allows the muscles and tendons to move.  Essentially he digs his thumbs into my hamstrings as deep and hard as he can. Ouch! The process only takes about fifteen minutes and it is working. Tricia is more flexible than ever and Coach Snowden is able to do more and more hamstring exercises in the gym. <br> I admire Eric more than anyone I know, offered Tricia.  He has inspired me more than anyone else. He is 100% dedicated to hi( S_L$>@#˹JBXJ<01$-Rl-Fv eFr#]hǶlI?͂9Ҵ=U?^L-tH㿎'ĪlcHzq1[C"-߾ANKkvc:.[EUK}z jeqBBR^|ҧy"p+5p2C6zOlBxouȚH"J 45C.8ʤXh@Z,xW9H0kZI^~tPҹ'&hxLw>WɘDoCa_&,Q,p^f)\q8Q]qzv_8ǫq ['j%̾zSLFP}sK7WČ|#OdclnӇ%FrN@FEc#=wA+k-AͬM%Լsl Kgs?_`I/}F)|3hW6q4$-hi6Λ_*f(H3[(Kn:v:\Q;Wz7ӦG-4 (;A,2F‰S8r̍0(}flNlj/ӚAy,l;5 l6;WTP<-̀QF՝w2LWRBuaO]VᒟyvQɚzbAxފ6⴮@a.%X)^ܵN΅\VGeMfM8s3D!bu~I*S.ŎRmYrF2I%G< 8i!P|Jr}u:^a#) (kᶪ K9D(`iNpYԮEHj (T )1i$x{6dDնQk'*@hzdQF>/:y ၼ~#A)u#G?wȕSXכ&,`3BPh}ë+9T,:|2- hVі%WX'fPz?FKidIWSِ0LIٌWiCJv0j6=ծ^N"2UAl~w…̈́uᗻg\t9A+2ƋGOI]6hc4g[O*x*OoN;PjGpqL6"##/%?~sb?PM*ٟ?1_BS1\=F&.)ąypՉS: 7$%ǝ!Q #ˈ5pG )fRN]^#~b9|o 2XC.6a~V.[mڀ3S\GiB7VrE>t%zvr[6Λ.29o~rg2\z~wĎ<)6T`aa,'栊Nr?XnM?}i!ےEG`%"MF.A&ѰdR:2Jl>Z"k֍ziOQ~jI[<^ <6YZԓo,S91DX?MPi4Geߘ_k6m6K:?8&8ٗqIEv.pT.8ǟ<8enI?g1tDp~V3 ۾ت4Rժ0l6˰Ռj>X|s~ͲiaZ)nMJtS{cvf5T-Z>g3[MÖQtˣũJ'N}X6sy[KWuV1xu-6uKv471׳|#xsov}coКe\2n>KjueBR󵟘V^V4 yjTQ90*4^Z+UIƨU>/RvgwRi,Ԡ2u)?a
