The Runner

I went running last Sunday night and I took Austin with me. I tried to take it slow so that he wouldn't get too tired and worn out. It turns out that my caution was unwarranted as young Austin proceeded to run his old man into the ground. He completed the 1.5 mile run without stopping and apparently without any real effort. I ended the run gasping for breath, hoping not to pass out, only to see Austin looking at me as if he had just run the length of the driveway. I think that we might have a cross-country star in the making.
