"Never let weakness convince you that you lack strength." - Unknown
There are thirty-two months that lie between today and Springer Mountain. Time to physically prepare. When a 20 pound kettlebell sets my extended arm to quivering, my trainer scampers to find lesser weight. I want to pretend I do not feel his help on assisted pull-ups, but I must live in reality. It is time to stop daydreaming and start living the dream.
“Weakness is not a fault … unless it's ignored. Weakness is a requirement. It's a prerequisite for strength. In our weakness we are made strong. We do not get stronger by lifting something we can already handle. Our strength builds during weakness. Without weakness, without challenge, there will be no change.”
