A sport story for you



Hi guys, the buzz word nowadays is to recycle, and so I am going to recycle this post I made on my Stingray blog 2008 to the Sneakers National League blog 2008...

Have you heard of Steve Prefontine? He was a high profile American long distance runner in the 70s. He died in a car accident when he was only 24. However, his legacy live till today. If you know anything about long distance running at all, it is all about strategizing and planning how hard to run at each phase of a race. However, Prefontine did not believed in holding back in any part of a race, he believed in giving all he had in the entire race. Although he contradicted his coach, the notion of "giving all you have" showed passion, conviction and determination, and these are qualities that all athletes should have.


So Sneakers, let us play hard on Sat and show them what Sneakers is made of. We might have lost to them before, but bouncing back is what we do best ! Go read what Yasmine posted (last entry), she urged us to play with all our guts and might! Also, if it is a physical game that they want, then we will play a physical game. If they wanna slap us hard, we will slap back harder!
Go Sneakers go, and by writing this blog... I am raring to go!

Ace is not the only one playing the final. Speed is also playing their final this Sat. All the best and go speedy go!
