Personal Trainer

He used to run with her father in winters every Sunday when he was in high school wearing double sweatpants, a windbreaker, a beanie, and a neck warmer. That old habit is still rooted in his routine and he now runs 4 to 6 miles 5 days a week. Whether he’s at home or on vacation, he needs to run 5 days a week, no matter how the weather is and what the terrain is.

He also stated that running is sort of a therapy for him. Whenever his mind is swinging, he goes for a run and it actually calms him and also helps him to stay fit and lean throughout the year. He also uses this audio app on his iPhone to record lines before he runs.
