Inspirational Topic - What Does it Take to Be a Top Track and Field Athlete?
Not long ago, I was talking to an incredible athlete, he was a sprinter, and he'd always dreamed of becoming the fastest human alive.
Is that possible? Yes, someone has to be the fastest man alive, and isn't that what every Olympic Athlete dreams of? No, he wasn't at the Olympic level yet, but is committed to making that happen.
So, you ask what would it take to be a great Track and Field Sprinter athlete? Well, that I do not know for sure, because I was a miler, not a sprinter, but I know what it takes to run and compete at those top tier levels.
Yes, I was an incredible runner once upon a time.
Those workouts were killing me, literally, in the end I am glad I retired from that.
Thankfully, I never had a serious injury, far too adapted to running, it is all my body knew.
I was never afraid of the pain, it's just day-in-and-day-out, it's pretty insane - just running and thinking.
But I loved the agility, super human, enjoy it now - you won't have that level or strength forever.
Another reason we need to fix this aging problem! What will my athletic sprinter athlete need to win? Strength and speed, he asks.
Yes, maximum strength, conditioning is key - but the real deal is "WILL" you have to be 100% in it to win it! You have to think, dream, live, work, eat, nothing but WINNING! It has to be a mindset, and you have to have strength of character, dedication, commitment, drive, ambition, perseverance like no other.
You have to be human + and never give up.
Not many people are that into life or their endeavors to compete at that level.
It takes 110% to pull it off, you have to go beyond what is possible, you have will events to occur, and you must have the power of the mind, all of it to get it done.
Seriously, this is the big time.
Very few people in the world have it, I've only met a handful in my entire life.
You must be fully engaged, and focused.
It's more than just conditioning, you have to be part of the track, defy physics, and push into another dimension.
It can be done - but it's going to nearly kill you to do it.
You must commit - mind, body, and soul - there is no other way that I know.
Indeed, I hope you will please consider all this.
