We lost David Torrence just over ten days ago. A fine middle distance runner, who ran 1:45 for 800 meters to 13:16 for 5000 meters, I had just watched David run a 3:56.10 mile in Birmingham, England on August 20.
As good of a runner as David was, he was a finer human being. On your run today, work hard, breathe in, breathe out and consider David Torrence, his wide smile, his family, his friends and how lucky we are to have friends, family and team mates.
David would have liked that.
