Mike Liberatore Training for the 2011 Europa Orlando Pro: Journal Entry #2

LiberatoreLeg5 weeks out and a 2000 mile road trip....

Disclaimer: Dave Palumbo does not endorse Mr. Liberatore's actions regarding precontest dieting and driving halfway across the country.  Remember he's a trained professional...we think!
