Well - it's finally here. Summer vacation!! For those of you who work in the northern hemisphere, it's time to recharge the batteries and spend some time with family, friends and personal interests.
Have a great vacation - you deserve it!!

The above articles are for PE Update members only. But how about free stuff? This newsletter includes links to a video that puts inspirational sports quotes to music; our weekly blog that discusses the lesson provided to aspiring athletes by last week's U.S. Open golf tournament; and a free article and video tip on how to improve your short game in golf.
