    Bro, I loved every minute of this. Please, when you see your pops, give him an upper grip handshake, close embrace, 3 pumps on the back, slaps on both sides of the hand, with a spin move and snaps to finish it out. He seems like an amazing dad and I'm happy to hear you express appreciation for his guidance.

    I saw an ad for the sub4 story and I was like I am going to check this out. So I started watching all of the series. I liked the story about how
    Alex Ostberg was. Your friendliness throughout the videos allowed me to get to know you and I feel like you have become my friend. Thank you for that. After writing that last 2 sentences, I have tears in my eyes. I saw this video and I liked the beginning where everybody was smiling and happy. I liked the whole thing really. I liked your race. You made up some ground on the leaders in the last lap. That was a really fantastic kick! Congratulations on that! I stopped the video 3:59.7. I tried to get it right on. I tried over and over and that was the best I could do for now. Congratulations! I make a picture of it so I can show it to you later. Thanks!

Everybody would of understood if you retired and threw in the towel but you decided to pick yourself up and to keep trying no matter how impossible it seemed. I kind of gave up competitive running after high school but now I am finally training hard again. My mile in high school was 5:03 and now I'm training to run the mile under 5 minutes.
