I'd like to improve on running plays. I want to see if I can hurt some more people. To me, I don't think I'm out there hurting enough people.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I should hurt a lot more people than I do. I'd like to hurt someone on every play.
When you have good runners, you always run fast. That's the motivation for me. But I have room to improve in my technique and in the start.
Don't play for one run unless you know that run will win a ballgame.
I received the best advice for running I ever heard: 'You're not going to win, so just relax. If it feels like work, you're running too hard.'
I love playing sports. I'm overly eager and aggressive and not very skilled, so it leads to many small injuries.
You can run in behind someone - one v. one, you're better - so I'm always trying to work on my speed. That's probably one aspect I've worked on the hardest as a player. I want to always improve on everything in my game, but that's one area I really work on.
In those long, lonely miles you put in during the off-season, and in those knife-in-the-gut track repetitions and hill repeats that buckle your knees - at that moment in almost every race when you ask yourself how much you're willing to hurt to catch one more runner - you can draw strength and inspiration from your running mates.
What I think I've been able to do well over the years is play with pain, play with problems, play in all sorts of conditions.
I want to avoid injuries by running only road.
I really do try hard to be a good teammate. I can't run very fast, but I try to always run hard. I may strike out a lot, but I try to walk to set up the guys who are hitting after me.
