Now in his 40s, he continues to train via his workout routine. “When I was the Texas high school champion in the mile and two mile, I was 125 pounds. Just lungs and legs,” said the actor.

“I had a bit of a weights regimen, and that continued once I started running at Stanford, but endurance was at the core of everything I did. I turned more to weight training as my film and TV career progressed, and I got further from my running roots.”
