Shooting the Breeze with Dave Denniston

Shooting the Breeze with Dave Denniston

Shortly after just missing the US Olympic Team in 2004 Dave Denniston returned to his home state of Wyoming for some fun and relaxation. During a sledding excursion Dave ran into a tree and all of a sudden found himself paralyzed from the waist down. If you're initial reaction was that of sympathy (like most) you will want to read Dave's candid and unbelievably funny thoughts on his own life and what he's learned from it. He also took the chance to talk about Men's NCAA's this weekend and what it's like to train for the Paralympics versus his previous Olympic preparation.
