It’s That Time of Year, Again!

December 1, 2007 | Tags:

It’s that time of year when it’s dark in the morning and it’s dark in the early evening and it’s cold. It’s that time of year when getting in a good workout means bundling up and facing the possibility of a run made difficult and uncomfortable by the elements.

It’s also that time of year to toss your hat in the ring if you want a spot in the Escape from Alcatraz triathlon which is what I did last night (wish me luck).

Today’s video is about facing adversity and getting out on the course anyhow. It isn’t about the dark and the cold weather, though - it’s about carrying on even when you’ve been dealt a low blow like say the loss of a limb. Knowing that people carry on against such a challenge really motivates me to quit whining and avoiding my workouts and just get out there. I hope it helps you, too.
