THE THREE KINDS
THERE ARE THREE KINDS OF CLIMBERS, and they each approach a long climb in their own way. I'm not sure there is a right or a wrong way to do it...
... I've seen 'em all.
Today, I was witness to a few.
Knowing I'm the slowest of my friends...
... I purposely let into the longish single track climb.
There I am,
doing my best,
to hold 'em back.
Just below my blowup speed...
... and they're talking like it's nothing.
Here are the three types...
- start out fast, fade towards the top
- start out slow, charge over the top
- start out however they feel, destroy everyone
,,, I know of.
Oh wait...
- start out reasonable and hope for the best
... there's me.
Of course...
- racing
- sprinting
- life in general
... it's not just climbing.
