9:01 AP Sebastian wanted to come along with me today. The boys we host for tournaments are always curious about my running since they only ever see me in the morning (post run, sweaty and in spandex feeding them breakfast). I've had some ride a bike alongside, or run a few miles with me, but no one ever stayed and ran the whole shebang. So we got going along the canyon and chatted in Spanish about weight training, good nutrition, and running & interval/circuit training. Of all the boys I've hosted, he's the most dedicated both mentally and physically (ie the guy is totally ripped). He's 206 lbs and had never run over 4 miles before. It was fun to have a huge man like that begging to know how much farther. He pushed a pretty good pace though. Of course I stepped it up slightly to show him how it's done. He's young, he can take it. |
