Growing Support
Can you imagine not having a strong support system of encouragement? This has been such a wonderful week for me with my training, getting athlete of the week, buying a house, and finishing second at the local time trial! It has been hard for me to contain my excitement and not brag about how awesome I think I am. Let me say it at least once, I am living my dream! There, got it out of my system. There is absolutely no way that any of these things could have happened if I did not have a stream of "congratulations" "keep it up" "I have faith in you" "you're going to make it through to the end" etc.. from my family and friends. I feel like I should write a thank you letter to powerbar for giving me a sponsorship and to my training partners for pushing me along the course and to everyone who sends me messages of encouragement and inspiration. I don't know where I would start because there have been so many different people who have helped keep my dreams alive that I've lost track of them all. Instead, I want to say thank you to anyone and everyone that I have ever talked to, trained with, studied with, or taught about athletics. Thank you powerbar for believing in me and supporting me. Thank you family, friends, and training partners for encouraging me and letting me talk the entire run. The growing support that I have had throughout my life is overwhelming and inspirational in itself. The first triathlon of the season is this coming weekend, I hope I am able to live up to the expectations you all have set for me. The best part about my support is that no matter what happens, I know you will all still be here. For that, I thank you! You give me encouragement.
