DEREK PALLARDY BLOG

I'm sorry in advance, and as you read this, you'll understand why I have to apologize. I have been enjoying an amazing off-season here in Independence. First of all, it's great to play a sport that has a summer off-season. I'm pretty sure that my off-season lifestlye inspires a great deal of jealousy from most of my friends. My typical day is spent working out in the morning, hanging out at the pool during the day, and teaching hockey lessons at the IEC in the evening...again, I'm sorry!
