Nathaniel Green has been running cross-country for Humber since he came to the school 3 years ago. Green’s dedication to the sport and work ethic has certainly paid off for the runner. Last year he placed 10th at nationals with a time of approximately 26 minutes. Green says he enjoys cross-country for the reward of seeing himself improve. “Even though it hurts, I love the feeling after every practice. Your legs are on fire and you kind of feel. I like the feeling you get from pushing yourself,” said Green. Green is constantly pushing himself to improve. When his coach sets a time for him, he always goes above and beyond that. Green has proven that leading by example is what motivates himself and his teammates. His positive attitude and hardworking mentality make him very beneficial to the cross-country team at Humber. Green is a third year industrial design student at Humber College.
