Cycling and the goals that I make are the one thing that I do for myself and the satisfaction that I get from riding influences everything else that I do. My goals are all about becoming a stronger rider and enjoying the experience more. Since I don't have much time to train, most of the goals I write down have to make sense over a longer period of time. It makes sense to me at least that the first step in realizing your individual goals comes through recognizing some of the limitations we face, face the reality of everything and move forward/evolve from there.
"You are all Champions in your own way. That doesn't mean you have to be number 1 or be the best. Just do your best. If you aren't first, then make those people ahead of you break records by pushing them with your personal best. Consider for a moment what we achieve from athletics - the sheer fun of competing - the building of a healthy and alert mind and body - stamina, courage, perseverance, dedication, commitment, selflessness and most importantly, the will to excel."
