Opportunities lost:

Unfortunately as I write this post training hasn't gone as well as planned. Plans change, things come up, etc etc. It's not what I wanted to have happen but I will deal with consequences and use them as motivation for the future. The lessons I have learned this training cycle will stick with me and hopefully make me a better coach, business owner, and athlete.

I will finish what I started this year just not at the pace that I had hoped. Years ago when I was asked if I was discouraged from missing my BQ time after all the hard work I had put in, I simply replied with "nope, this just means that I get to keep running." So even though this next race won't be my "moonshot," I do get the opportunity to continue to share with all of you the challenges of being a husband, father, coach, business owner, and athlete.
