I love it when athletes do seemingly crazy things (to the average person) to make themselves better.
I read that Kristine Lilly would run the stairs in her house when she was young if she couldn't do any training outside.
I read Terrell Owens book in which he talked about how he would get out of the house at night and run sprints.
He also does sit-ups while being interviewed.
I read about a former UNC women's soccer player named Laurie Schwoy. In a book by Anson Dorrance she said she played soccer for two hours...in the morning and at night...She used to wake up in the morning at 6 am before school and play soccer in her back yard...She said that if she got tired and didn't get her time in that she would get up at midnight and play. She'd play in her basement if it was raining.
I love it when people have so much passion for what they do that they would go to the lengths of these people to make themselves better. I love it even more when it involves sports.
