I will swim again, run again, ride again, and not because I want to win a race. Not because I want to reach some arbitrary time goal (I gotz goals), but because these are my mountains to climb. And when I reach the top of the mountain, I feel... indescribable.<br />~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br />Nice Bro!!

You know what I think? (Of course you don&#39;t, you are way over there and I&#39;m way over here). I think that a guy who has managed everything that you have in the last two years, a guy that is an Ironman, isn&#39;t ever gonna let a some little mountain slow him down. Here&#39;s the thing - you&#39;ve fought the fight and won, you know you have it in you and whenever you feel a struggle coming on, you just remember that!Backofpackhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13779487553272296752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28269773.post-42824838417457264022009-08-03T18:54:17.533-04:002009-08-03T18:54:17.533-04:00It&#39;s sooo easy to quit but sooo great to hit the target.

Mental toughness and tenacity will help every time and you gotz boatloads of both my friend.<br /><br />:-)Stefhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05803971928926890921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28269773.post-55932272716920216072009-08-03T18:06:44.526-04:002009-08-03T18:06:44.526-04:00Yep, we definitely all have those days (weeks, months, etc). I think the lowlight of my Boise training was getting blown off my bike by the wind and crashing. NOT the way I wanted to begin my taper.<br /><br />It&#39;s getting back on the horse that makes you so tough mentally! Way to get at it! Hope the rest of your weekend was relaxing ;)Mollyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17228735227119427610noreply@blogger.com
