RE: Three Months of Steemit – Who Am I?
Don't sell yourself short haha, still impressive :) But yeah, I can see how the whole awards thing could be a little fickle!
Haha that's awesome! I specialize in brisk plodding! But not for long distances ;) I'll just have to come cheer you on as you run haha.
P.S. I sent you a message on Discord a couple days ago, not sure how often you check that so thought I'd let you know!
Haha well the goal is to one day qualify for Hawaii (Kona - the Ironman world champs) but I'm sure I could squeeze in a quick Ironman across the pond ;) Seriously though it's just about getting used to plodding, I think that's why I love tri, I've come from a proper sports background but at my first 70.3 I was being overtaken by people who were in no way natural born athletes, but just pushed themselves to do what so many people find incredible! Made me realise how easy I have it as someone who's had a lifetime of high level sports as a 'base'
Oh man, that's awesome!
Hmm, I hadn't really thought about it that way before! I guess there is something really cool about people grinding it out through sheer willpower. Definitely makes you appreciate the effort they've put into it a lot more than say a 7 foot basketball player who is at a natural advantage.
