Some Random Thoughts

May 20th, 2008

Well my period has struck me down a week early. Think my body was thrown out by the antibiotics I had for the wisdom teeth, and feel like crap, so passing on running class tonight.

Was reading one of Gordo's old blog post (http://www.gordoworld.com/gblog/2008/01/sweet-home-new-zealand.html) talking about being back in NZ. Thought it was really interesting his thoughts on how we work really hard with little expectation of great reward. I rang a bell with me for some reason... Its not just my work I work hard in, I also work hard at my training, and i have little expectations of doing really well, or receiving a reward for doing it. I think that is true for a lot of us in the triathlon / multisport community.

Also got a quote from that post of Gordo's

When we see ourselves as good people, we can give ourselves excuses that prevent us from being great.
