Sweat is my middle name.


"Success is not measured by what you accomplish but by the opposition you have encountered, and the courage with which you have maintained the struggle against overwhelming odds." -Orison Swett Marden


My race is next weekend. I don't know that I've struggled against "overwhelming odds" but I certainly have struggled through this training. It's been more difficult to get my head around the idea that yes, I too can finish a Sprint Triathlon. My body is doing the work, but most days I feel like "I can't". I'll be happy when the race is over and I start telling myself "I can" do something rather extraordinary.
