Professional soccer player Foster Langsdorf joins Max and Michael in this week's Marathon Minute episode. Max and Foster go way back, having competed against each other in the college and pro ranks, and played as teammates for Portland's U23 team and Timbers 2. Foster grew up in Vancouver, WA and saw soccer as an outlet of energy and expression at an early. He was not highly recruited coming out of high school, with no scholarship offers and eventually accepting an opportunity to walk on at Stanford. Foster went on to make the team and in the next four years become a 3 time national champion, 2 time all American, 2 time pac 12 player of the year, and all time leading goalscorer in pac 12 history. But Foster didn't stop there, he signed as a homegrown for his childhood club the Portland Timbers and is now playing in his 4th season in MLS. Tune in to hear Foster talk about his thoughts seeing Max get sent off after a foul on him, his mindset in evolving from a walk on to all American, the difference between motivation and discipline, some of the origins of his work ethic and some amazing stories.
