Rain started falling at the Surprise Recreation Campus around 5:30 Thursday morning, which meant that Texas Rangers outfielder Willie Calhoun’s morning run with assistant coach Jayce Tingler would have to be moved indoors.
And it led to a competition with two others who have joined the every-other-day running club – general manager Jon Daniels and assistant GM Mike Daly.
“Our goal is for all our guys to look like me physically,” Daniels said.
It’s not as comical is it might seem. Daly ran the 2017 New York City Marathon, and Daniels is part of the Orangetheory Fitness craze.
