El Guerrouj - what an outstanding talent and to think that his mile and 1500 world records are still standing since the 1990s. Exceptional.

The Song used was from the movie "Rudy". It's about a football player that's short (like Pre) and has his determination to get him to his goal. Great movie

Imagine an Olympic final 5000m race. Imagine that the three greatest distance runners of all time were in that one race. The greatest 1500m runner, at the very peak of his career. The greatest 5k and 10k runner ever, who is poised for his breakout. And the greatest marathoner of all time, an almost unknown who will one day run the first sub 2 hour marathon. Imagine all three sprinting for Olympic medals over the last 250 meters. Now go to 3:06 and watch it.

With 300 to go I could hear this video in my head and I started to imagine el-g chasing Bekele.... All the fatigue vanished... Sprinting at the end of 10000! And Steve pulls away to win! (2nd).

running 25-30 miles a week is a good amount for ur age. You should, however, keep in mind that running itself tightens up muscles and ligaments plus you are starting to go through your growth spurt. In your growth spurt your bones grow master than your ligaments which means all of ur muscles and ligaments are being stretched like a rubber band. So it would be a good idea to follow ur mom's advice and stretch a lot that way u wont get injured.
