    What a wonderful story, and amazing job, Taso. And thank you for pointing out a lot of things I needed to hear, and things I will need to remember. It's only been a couple months since I started redefining how I do what I do and what I want, and I ALWAYS have unrealistic expectations of myself. Combine that with going through the hardest time of my life, and I am doing REALLY well. :D I just need an occasional reminder from those with much more wisdom. :heart:

    :laugh: There's a reason I wear track pants instead of shorts on deadlift day. The alternatives are "bloody shins" and "those socks."

    I wear track pants DLing at home. At a PL meet, there are explicit rules about attire, and long socks are required. It took a while to come to terms with having to wear a singlet. :laugh:
