the small stuff

don't sweat it.

seriously.

gloves, shoes, goggles, what clothes to wear, training after jumping in a lake.

that stuff doesn't matter.

not yet anyway.

start running. start strength training. start it all. start small. start something.

in a few months, when you start getting closer to the race day, you can start considering things like that.

not yet.

for now, you should be worried about being at the back of the pack.

    right now Im concentrating on wearing out my shoes so fast I have time to break in a new pair before May, on increasing my cardio endurance, getting over the effects of smoking and what its done to me the last month, and putting my arms through goddamn hell.

    I have so much trouble going low enough to touch my ribs to the floor when Im doing pushups, but I refuse to switch to the girl ones. I dont want to be good at girl pushups. I dont want to be good at boy pushups. I just want to be good, strong and lethal.

    I found three hills close by me that I can practice running straight up until I find something steeper. But if I just keep practicing my little explosive sprints and long runs- then I will be pumped to level up.

    I'll worry about what to wear later, lol, if I train well enough, itll be hard enough to force me to wear more than my underwear anyway. I wont want all my muscles hidden :tongue:

    Blind Prisoner: You do not fear death. You think this makes you strong. It makes you weak.
    Bruce Wayne: Why?
    Blind Prisoner: How can you move faster than possible, fight longer than possible without the most powerful impulse of the spirit: the fear of death.
    Bruce Wayne: I do fear death. I fear dying in here, while my city burns, and there's no one there to save it.
    Blind Prisoner: Then make the climb.
    Bruce Wayne: How?
    Blind Prisoner: As the child did. Without the rope. Then fear will find you again.
