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, [...]

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 [...]

Speedy Curry

Amrit. Where the hell do I begin? (I’ve typed out a sentence 4 times and deleted it, I really don’t know where to start) I guess the starting point of what would turn out to be a great friendship is 8th grade; Cross Country and 2nd period Journalism. Who knew we’d turn out to be [...]

Fording + Run = Fun

It took me a while to go to a run that really made me want to write, but this was it. It wasn’t the hardest run in the world, nor was it the most scenic run in the world, and we’ve done the trail a million times before, so what was so special about it? [...]

Shortened Reservoir, Extended Fun

Now that, that was a good run. Maybe it didn’t have the novelty of a storm run, a first night run, or crazy mud run, but this was a good run. The best part about it was that we all worked together, we kept each other in check in the beginning, we pushed each other [...]

I’m Back.

It’s been a while. I don’t have anything to write just yet, but tomorrow I’m going on my first 10 miler of the season, and trust me, I’ll be back. How do I know I’ll be back? Well I was supposed to ref a game tomorrow at 3:45, but when deciding on whether I’d rather [...]

This Feeling

I don’t know how to describe it. I’m torn between being nervous and being sad. This might be it, in two ways. This might be the last race I have with the LHS XC team, the team that has been my family for four years. This might be the last time I get to huddle [...]

Four Dots

Signify the end of our last fun run, they signal the end of this season, and they mark the end of four years of LHS XC. But they don’t mark the end of the love I’ve found here at Lynbrook as a Cross Country Boy. These past four years have been truly amazing, every single [...]
