This is every bit true for me and I'm sure many others!
I dont live a balance lifestyle. For me, I have to add my 4 year old daughter, wife and immediate family to that list of things that get neglected.
I do blood tests every 3 months, and my diet is at its worst, during build season and while we travel.

During any event, I ignore the lunch and dinner schedules. All that matters is when our next match is!

Sounds bad, but this is reality.
On our team the students have figured out that when I'm sick our team has an amazing competition/wins awards. I typically skip breakfast/lunches at events because food isn't the priority at the moment!
