ARE YOU AT WAR?
I'M AT WAR. Nobody knows it. Instead my friends and neighbors say things like You're so dedicated or You're an inspiration. Maybe I am, and that's cool...
... but, it's not about them or what they think.
It's my fight.
When I look at the pull up bar strategically placed in my bathroom door jam, I'm reminded of the battle. It is there because I committed to do pull ups and pushups...
... every dawgawn day.
The first few are never fun, never, which is why it is so difficult to get started...
... I grab that dern bar and hang.
Up.
Down.
Then, it's 3 pushups for every pull up completed...
... I grudgingly assume the plank position.
Down.
Up.
In a few minutes, it is all over. My muscles are full of blood and it feels so flipping good...
... that's why I go to war with myself.
Because I like it,
the challenge,
overcoming.
It's the reason I am going to go alone today and do intervals on a 10 mile rocky singletrack climb...
... nobody will know, but me.

Just like nobody will see all the work I put in before the A races on my calendar.
