Like a 14 year old who doesn't show much potential. Is it possible they could someday be respected national class runners? People say Pre only ran 5:01 his frosh year but he ran 10:08 for two miles, so he showed tons of talent. Are there any actual examples of kids not showing much potential but still end up great runners? Seems some of the kids here with lofty goals don't show lots of potential but work ethic. So just wondering if it has happened before.
