I heard the world, up late night...
Some of the crap in my life finally fell through today, and it felt good to just let it out.
But, this morning was non-fulfilling. Everyone knows I've gained weight...a little over 20 pounds. So this morning my cross country coach and I were talking; a friend of mine happened to bump into him this weekend at a triathlon, and my name came up. One thing lead to another, and I told him how we raced together in a few races, and I could, on a good day, get the best of him.
"Don't worry about the short distance, you've always seemed like a long distance kind of guy. But man...if you lost 10 pounds, you'd be a beast."
You're welcome, Coach. I may be one of the slowest guys on the team, but when I'm not injured (even sometimes when I am), I go to practice, I run as hard as I can, and more importantly, put my time and effort into making sure the team obtained sufficient funds by my fundraising.
Effort just doesn't cut it anymore I guess. It's all about the performance on race day.
So be it.
