Running the MileThroughout my life, I was never very athletic. I wasn’t really into competition, balls, or confrontation. The only thing I enjoyed were pointless things like watching TV and sitting on my ass. It was the summer before my junior year in high school that I realized I needed a change. A group of my friends were joining cross country and invited me to do it also. At my high school, there were no try outs; every student just made the team.As everyone gathered around on the first day of practice, the coach announced it was time for “warm-up.” When I heard this, I imagined warm-up to be a lap around the track. I soon realized it was three fourths of a mile. After completing three laps around the huge football field, I was DONE for the day. I wondered, “If that was warm-up, what’s next??” The real workout for the day was a three mile run, which I spent the entire walking. When I came home, I really considered quitting. However, I just convinced myself to keep at it and try harder the following day.Of course, there was no real improvement instantly. I still had trouble with just the warm-up.  I always came in last during practice and the first few races. As days and weeks went on, I really tried my best. During practice, I would always keep at the middle of the group; the fastest more serious runners were always ahead, while the slackers were the last group of people. As the result of my persistence, warm up became a real warm up. The three mile runs converted into an easy day of practice. And I was no longer last in anything we did. A couch potato, like me, never dreamed of succeeding in a sport like this.
