Four words that get us Giddy(Up!) The call to battle. Between ourselves and our competitors. The chance to test fitness. To prove our training. Or lack thereof. The watch, it never lies.
Whether your preferred venue is the track, the roads, or the dirt the one constant is the minute and second hand’s continuous sweep. The watch, it never stops.
If I’ve learned anything over the last 43 years of racing, it is that we all pull our shorts on one leg at a time. Each of us has our own personal litmus test for success. Whether it be a personal best or simply completing the course, only you can measure how you feel about your performance.
Every race offers its own insights. Those that pay attention to the lessons and get lathered for the next effort, you are real runners. With that said, Runners Take Your Marks!
