Vive la Vie

Belgian's No.2 100m sprinter

Chamberry is the son of one of the teachers at school and organised for him to come to training this evening. He took them through his very extensive warm up and then they did 3 x 150m with 12 minutes rest between each! Our kids couldn't believe the amount of rest or the speed that this guy could run 150s. He was really lovely and patient with the group happily answering questions and I even took my two along to watch.
However they both decided that they wanted to run around the track and I kept watching thinking they would start walking soon but they kept going only stopping for a quick swig of water when they came back round to me. Olivia stopped after two laps but Dex did four (although Olivia did run across the field checking that he was okay!). He kept saying that he had to practice and he drew much admiration from the other kids and coaches who have pencilled him into the team in the future!
