I was breathless and soaked in sweat. I was on the edge of my breaking point. "Zane" I managed to breathe out "How much longer?" He laughed without effort "QB Riley can't finish what he started?" "I feel like we've been at this for hours…I didn't know…you could-" I struggled to catch my breath "I didn't know you could last this long" I replied. I tried to keep up with his pace but he was just going too fast. "C'mon Riley, just a little bit longer, we're almost there!" Zane shouted at me. The only thing I could hear was my pulse racing and my heavy breathing. I felt as if I would collapse right where I was. I gave one last push and… "YES!" I let out a cry of joy. I fell down, exhausted from what we had just endured. Zane sat down beside me "that was great" he said with a smile. "Easy for you to say" I replied glaring at him in mock anger. I sat up "I'll see you tomorrow?" I asked hopefully. "Same time" he replied. I watched him as he got up to pull his shirt back on and jog back in the direction of his house. I laid back down against the pillow and sighed "I just love our morning jog."
