I'm a true athlete. People don't play sports because its fun. Ask any athlete, most of them hate it, but they couldn't imagine their life without it. Its part of them, the love/hate relationship. Its what they live for. They live for the practices, parties, cheers, long bus rides, invitational's, countless pairs of different types of shoes, water, Gatorade, & coaches you may hate but appreciate. They live for the way it feels when you beat your rival team by 1 run in extra innings, and you know those 2 extra sprints you ran in practice were worth it. They live for the way you become a family with your team, they live for the countless songs you sing in your head when you're running ALL those laps. They live for the competition, they live for the friends, the practices, the memories, the pain. It's who they are. It's who we are.
