Colts RB Frank Gore is motivated by people saying he is "old"
Frank Gore is still running hard at the age of 33
Frank Gore is 33 years old, and while he fell short of 1000 yards last season he is ready to prove that he still has the “it” factor. His 3.7 yards per carry in 2015 were a career low, but he is working hard to get over the “old” stigma.
“Believe me, I listen,” Gore told the Indy Star’s Stephen Holder. “When I hear it, that’s when I attack my training. When I’m tired, I tell myself what the people are saying about me. In that second workout (of the day) when I’m saying, ‘Man, I don’t want to do this.’ I remind myself, ‘They’re saying you’re old. They’re saying you’re 33. They’re saying you can’t do it this year.’ I play games with myself off that stuff.”
Gore has been working with young guys in Miami like Giovanni Bernard and Teddy Bridgewater.
“But, see, that’s why I like working with young guys,” Gore told Holder. “You can’t even tell (the difference), can you?”
