My guest is Max Lahiff. Max is a professional rugby player currently running out for Bath.

Max and I went to school together. I watched him rise from 3rd XV to star of the 1st XV as he began his journey to premiership rugby and becoming the physical specimen he is today!

Max cooks, lifts heavy weights, reads comics, loves art and all things weird and wonderful.

A letter written by American author Hunter S Thompson led me to contemplate my beliefs about goal setting. So i decided to grab the microphone and share my thoughts.
