Kids vs The Best in the World. #running #powerspeedendurance
There is something you will never be able to deny, and this is one of those things. Deep into this I believe if you stop being a kid and you will stop reinforcing the most natural and universal way our bodies work. The “Kid” on the left still enjoys what he does at the highest level. Ever watch him win? He is smiling and effortlessly running his way to Gold. The kids on the right could care less about Gold but are effortlessly enjoying everything they are doing. Is it weird they run the exact same way?
