It made me realize how much worse my situation could be and that there was always light at the end of the tunnel his story is amazing and he’s really a inspiration I highly recommend checking out his book it’s a real eye opener.

    Funny thing how put running the cops can make you very fast. I remember my friends being behind me when someone said I'm calling the police. We turned around and ran and I was last in the pack and knowing the the last in line is the one caught i ran past all 7 of them and the other fast kid was the farthest from me when I started. I got back to base so quickly that I was waiting 20 mins for the rest of them to catch up. After 10 mins I thought we had lost some to capture. I still have no record. Lol

    One of the interesting parts is apparently when he first went to be recruited his resting BPM was too low (slow?) and so when he went the second time he ran I think it was a mile or something so that his “resting” BPM would be high enough to qualify.
