Paris Caballero, a 23 year old runner from Germantown, passed away on February 1. Many of you probably competed against him in local races. He was quick on his feet and might have given you a run for your money...he won a number of races in the DC area over the past few years. I only met him once, but it was evident that he was a great person. "My heart has joined the Thousands, for my friend has stopped running today."

Paris was a great up and coming runner. I remember battling him in a 1600m race a couple of years ago. He was also very passionate about running and intense with training.
ReplyDeleteVery sad to hear. What did he die of?
ReplyDeleteWord is he shot himself, but not 100% sure
ReplyDeleteI think what Max said previously applies in this situation... Don't take your ability to run for granted
