The juggling jogger of South Florida

During my runs in Coral Gables, I've occasionally spotted a certain fellow runner. The first few times, I did a double-take. It wasn't because he was shirtless, sweaty and shredded although none of that hurt.

This guy isn't just running. He's juggling balls, three to be exact, of various sizes. A football, tennis ball and another round ball.

I don't know how he does it. The talent! I've fallen now and then during my own runs because I tend to move to the beat of whatever dance music I'm listening to Pitbull, Jennifer Lopez, etc. (Not to brag but I did a 8:15 mile the other day.) When I am not timing myself, I run a slower pace to one of Oprah Winfrey/Deepak Chopra's 21 Day Meditations. They make 2 to 3 miles feel like five minutes. I call those my Oprah/Chopra Runs.

Anyway, I shot a video of the talented mystery runner doing his thing Aug. 8 just before I was about to start my own run near the University of Miami. In fact, that's where I usually spot him. He must be a 'cane.


Maybe he should be on NBC's "America's Got Talent" or some fitness talent show.
