The Toughest Sport

http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/sportSkills Four words: Are you fucking serious? #40? Really? Easier than raquetball and squash? Easier than badminton and auto racing? Easier than calf roping?? I recently got into a debate as to which sport is the hardest – ironic that ESPN decided to join in. Sure playing football isn’t the easiest thing in the world, [...]

6 Runners.

They all ran the same hills, the same workouts, the same races. And yet each and everyone of them took something different from it. “Three words : Training for Hawaii.” It’s about forgetting the past, it’s about throwing away all the expectations and fears. It’s about getting out there and putting everything you have into [...]

Slowskiy

Gene Gene Gene… Funny how our lives parallel each other’s so frequently huh? I really don’t know how to fully describe our friendship because that’s just what it is; indescribable. If you really sit and think about it’s rather hilarious how similar our lives are; I’ll refrain from writing about all our similarities but I’m [...]

Something To Think About.

While I get ready to type up my next post. The difference between the impossible and the possible lies in a mans determination” What does this mean to you?

Throwback: Clean Running Shoes

I realized that I never posted what got me started in writing on here, so since I have a ton of homework and my next friend post will come tomorrow, I’m gonna finally post it up   —————————————————————-   So here I am at 8:50 on the night before my dreaded chemistry honors final, staring [...]

Kuo

Today’s post was supposed to be for Gene, but after Kuo’s beast of a race yesterday…sorry Gene, you’ll have to wait till tomorrow Kuo. You are perhaps the most complex person I know; at times the hardest of workers and at times the laziest person I’ve ever seen – but the great thing about it [...]

DiBiase

What can I say about you DiBiase? We have been through a lot together, highs and lows but if you think about it, we’ve been friends since 2nd grade..we’ve known each other for 11 years of our lives and have done millions of things together. It started out with playing on the playground together, to [...]

This. Is. Running!

I’ll start off by “Yeah Okaying” myself for the title – I’ll explain it later. Today was a shorter run distance wise but still 42 minutes along the river. I went with Silvia today and although it wasn’t a very challenging run, it was nice to run at a leisurely pace and give myself a [...]

I’m Back.

It’s definitely been a while, but today I went on the first run that was worthy of a post in a long time. It’s not that I fell out of love with running, my body and mind were desperately in need of a rest after a long track season. Getting back into it was hard, [...]

There’s Something About Kuo

I could write about Arcadia, about how poorly I ran in my race or I could write about the rain run we had on Monday or our attempt at Black Mountain on Wednesday… but those really aren’t worthy of a post. Arcadia was just a meet, Monday wasn’t sloshed through the hills, and even though [...]
