Nicholas Sparks is today’s Guest Blogger? Well, sort of – via video clip.
Nicholas Sparks was a track star at Notre Dame.
Who knew?
And it was plantar fasciitis that ended one career and promoted another. Sounds a bit familiar, only different.
Nicholas Sparks wrote his first novel at 19. Around the same time, (1985), he and three other half-milers set the Notre Dame two-mile relay school record (7:20.11), which still stands today.
How do I know this? Facebook led me to this video interview with Nicholas Sparks and he’s standing next to the Notre Dame track & Field record book.
Wonder if he still runs?
