When I was a little boy, I always wanted to run. I loved competing with my friends.

The weather plays a very big role. I have run very few races in the raining and the cold.

I always wanted to be loved.

Though I loved books as a young boy, I loved sports even more. I wanted to be a quarterback in the CFL.

I realised I could run after finding out that my dad used to run and it gave me the morale that if he did it then maybe I could also run.

I've always been a dog owner, from the time I was a little boy in Chicago.
