...but you get what you need." Just like the song, sometimes things don't turn out like you envision them or the way you want. Last night's Empire Classic was one of those things. I had strong competition from 6 other awesome ladies, and didn't place in the top five like I had hoped to. And yes, I was disappointed, but I will always value the experience and know I accomplished what I set out to do, which was compete. I'm much stronger, leaner and will always have the experience as a positive one.
Waking up Sunday morning, I felt like one chapter of my story had ended, and another one was beginning. I don't plan to compete again, but am excited about a new goal - what I haven't figured out yet...I'm thinking triathlon...hmmmmm....swimming isn't my fondest activity, but it's a new challenge. I can run and bike, so I think I'll ponder that one, and find a new 'team' of support....I may not be quite ready for Ironman, but maybe something a little less crazy! Stay tuned...and oh yes, THANK YOU God. I am grateful for my health, my life and all my experiences. May I never stop seeking a new challenge!!
