Personal: I am a 19 year old freshman in college. I live just outside Boston, MA, but I am a student at Franklin and Marshall College in Lancaster, PA. In high school, I was football player, and, at one point, it looked like that was going to continue into college. However, I chose academics over the opportunity to play football. I have been looking for a competitive activity to replace football, and, so far, I have enjoyed my running the most. When I started this blog, I had been training for about 4 weeks. At the time of this blog's beginning, my mile time is about 6:45. I assume that's a pretty good time, considering I was a 240 pound lineman just eight months ago. I am ambitious and hard working. I set very high goals and standards for myself. I usually meet them, as my biggest fear is failing myself. When I do, it only motivates me to increase my efforts and try again. |
