Run? Why?

Tyson started Cross Country this year because a (female) friend said he should.  Little did Tyson (or I) know that his life was about to change.  He started running a mile daily to support her as she trained for a 1/2 marathon, telling me through huffy breaths that he felt like he was going to die.  One month later, he was running 3.1 miles at practice, asking himself every day why he started.  And then, each race, he'd PR.
"Mom, Spring Sports just opened up.  Will you sign me up for Track & Field?"  And just like that, we have a runner in the family!
