[@tamsterthehamster4384]

Still doing this daily! Ty❤

[@benjamindavenport9660]

I ran a 4:26 as a Junior and still have my Senior Track season left. I have finished my application for the USAFA with only my Congressional Interview remaining. Is there anything I can do to increase my goal of running at the Air Force Academy?

[@benjamindavenport9660]

I ask this with the goal of running under 4:20 in the 1600 this spring.

[@bretstevens262]

Go AFAXC! Thank you for doing this AFAXC !

[@hurdlegod4933]

Do you take breaks in between core exercises?

[@chris_floyd1]

No breaks. Breaks are for slow runners

This is getting a dislike for not giving the Maisons camera time

Okay, so I wear a men's sizes 18 shoe, I am 6 foot 5, and I am 15 years old, so I will most likely grow some more. Will my shoe size and my height be an issue if I happen to get accepted into the Air Force Academy?

We had a 6’8” teammate who graduated and ended up becoming a pilot he just needed a waiver

How often do you guys do this core training in a week?

[@chris_floyd1]

Maybe 2-4x. More often in summer/winter outside of racing season and less often during competition season. This is also supplemental to lifts 2x a week which also involve core strengthening exercises.

[@yabusho0332]

Thank you for the thorough answer! Good luck to you guys for upcoming regional and national races!!
