How a teen athlete became Walter Payton's training partner on 'The Hill'

On a steep hill some 30 miles northwest of Chicago, Kevin Kelly learned a lesson from Walter Payton about the value of hard work.

Walter was the real deal.

As a Kansas City boy I hated the 85 Chicago Bears but there was one player I truly loved and that was Walter Payton. He was a machine with a heart of gold. When he died I wore the sweatshirt I got from Soldier Field for a month solid.

To see Walter Payton against Jerry Rice....................running hills and working out. Who would quit/get tired first?

[@semi_osaaa]

Jerry Rice ran Hills but Walter Payton's Hill was another level 💯

2 Mississippi legends. I don’t think either would quit, it would be the first one to die. That’s the willpower of those 2.
