~:[CH14 - Day 105]:~ Just Running Around
It wasn't an easy to run today, but we are starting to taper down our workouts, as we get our athletes ready for league finals. It's a challenge for them to get through these workouts even when they are easier than the week before, as many of them hope to attain goals that will be challenging. After practice, they were able to find a little joy by running around with this little one, who sometimes swings by our practices. Our athletes cooled down with him and enjoy his company. Life can't always be about seriousness and focus. Even for the top level athletes, there needs to be a little fun mixed in to keep it light. I was watching a clip online when Ohtani walked to his car, opened, the door, and out came out playground balls, which filled his car. His coach had pranked him back from a previous incident. It's things like these that keep things fun during a time when being too serious can often throw you off. While you want to be diligent and focused, don't forget to enjoy life and just run around every once in awhile.
