“As a teenage athlete, I have worked with many trainers, coaches, and pros in my time; many of these people have been nationally recognized in their respective fields. Yet, none of these people affected my life as profoundly as you have. You taught me everything I needed to begin a rigorous training program. I also suffered from acute laziness and you inspired me with motivation. The only way to express my appreciation for what you have taught me is to continue the life-style of exercise and wellness. See you for next years Falmouth Road Race.”
