Excellent choice mon ami.... Happy with that? You know what, when I did my open half mary a month or so ago, I had SO much fun! I started thinking I may just stick to running. Didn't need to lug around all the crap. Just show up in running shoes (yeah, I like it that way) and GO! No, I'm not really happy with the 'decision' and its not firm. But I can't continue to bang my head against the wall on something that I'm not good at. Its going to be very hard to find motivation to continue working out if I don't have a goal - racing - to work towards. Yeah, I'm one of those Type As that simply can't do stuff for fun.
How good do you need to be? I figure no one is really good at anything except maybe Kobe Briant, Tiger Woods, and Tom Brady...... Everyone else is behind them.... I'm good at everything I do (compaired to the average joe), but great at nothing.... As long as I see some improvements, I'm happy. If you base your happiness on podium spots or beating Chris McKormack, you may want to reavaulate - just saying |
