There's more than what meets the eye. This race: it's a soul journey. It's about digging deep. It's about pushing past your limits. It's about doing something you never thought possible - something you never imagined you would try. It's about examining yourself in the raw, and coming to grips with who you see. It's about winning: proving to yourself, and to the world, that you can do great things. It's about life, and living to the fullest.

None of the steps to reaching our goals are easy. If they were, we wouldn't be interested in doing them. Every single day, we are all given the choice: in training, in nutrition, in racing, even in life decisions- we can cower, or we can conquer. So, what will it be for you? When it is your time to choose: will you cower, or will you conquer?
