I know what he meant. But like you, he has the IQ of carrion.
Shut up and mind your own business before I get menacing.
have you seen Paul McMullens I Dare You to Run? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2cqb8o5HNIE&feature=related

That's not what he's saying. It doesn't matter ir the kid is a better soccer player than runner or his niche is in basketball... he still could be a 4:20 miles. Definitely a 4:20 miler at every school.
Funny how Wellington Road posts anonymously and acts as if he is some sort of higher authority. Seriously dude move out of your grandma's basement and get a life.

Funny how some people don't understand the sheer hilarity of disparaging someone's anonymity under the name "use your brain" (two levels of irony for the price of one) as well as the fact that "get a life" and jokes about living in relatives' basements were old 15 years ago. I never claimed to be an authority on anything--that's why I asked a question. But I WILL manhandle your weak, sniveling ass if I ever see you in real life, pal.

Yep. A Loser Deluxe!
One thing that always irritates me is that during track season anyone who seems to be able to break 14 in the 100 gets put into sprints. Everyone who is slow as crap gets put into distance because they think oh you can get endurance and get good. The fact is that if a kid can't run a 100 any faster than 15 seconds he isn't going to be a good runner. I would like to have a lot of the "fast" guys on the team run distance.

This kid's mom is probably freaking out watching her kid lose that much weight (including a lot of muscle) in less than a year. That said, he seems to have tremendous willpower and desire.
Since he was a wrestler, too, I'm sure that his mom was probably used to it. The guy most likely cut down at least 15 lbs at the start of each wrestling season and cut weight (~10 lbs, obviously water weight) for tournaments and meets at least once a week...
The one thing wrestling has in common with running is that it is a very tough sport that requires a ton of commitment. I know a lot of wrestlers who have turned out to be good runners out of sheer toughness and tenacity - not out of natural talent.

oh ok dude
Hey dudes, I don't do these postings at all, but this one seemeed pretty interesting.
To me, this whole speed/strength vs. endurance depends on the individual, and the situation, and probably other specific factors (motivational/ psychological, etc) within that individual. I guy that I ran with in college ran 47.8 for the 400 and was All-American in the 4 X 400, however then, after college ran a 2:14 marathon, bordering on world class in that entirely different event. Absolutely different Skill sets, it would seem. Another dude on my team who couldn't break 4:35 for the mile, yet finished 6th in the NCAA National cross country championships 10,000 meters one year. Totally different situation. Third guy, who was on my racing team after college, apparently was a soccer goalkeeper at College, started running more after college, again different skills, but went on to qualify for the U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials on a number of occasions. And lastly myself, who ran a 4:03 mile, yet couldn't run under 2:40 for the marathon.
Everybody's different, however, in summary, it seems that people with leg speed, have an advantage. You can develop endurance to some degree, but it's much more difficult to speed up a slow twitch person.
In the article he obviously has only seen without limits because he says the words "I dont race to see whos the fastest I race to see who has the most guts" very original.

All that "Run Forest Run" crap made him snap. Now he's just a typical lowlife letsrunner. He should have stayed with football.
Wow. I wasn't paying attention to the dates and thought this was a cool story...then boom. Weird.
Sorry, Syracuse
holy cow - armed robbery from a fast xc runner? this might be a first. I honestly thought that distance running was a 100% preventative from violent crime.
Now this guy and Wanjiru? What's next - Flanagan arrested for shoplifting and resisting arrest?

Being a HS first team all-state linebacker, college player and runner now for over 30 years, I can see that this kid has talent and knows the results which can come from hard work.
Very impressive. Wishing him continued success.
hey talk about yourself more.
I would love to hear how by your being all those things, you can see that this kid has talent and understands the value of hard work. you would have been better off just posting, hey everyone, i was all state and love running!
Cut the kid some slack. He's just figuring himself out. He tried football and track, but obviously, he's settled on a career in the NBA.
