~:[CH12 - Day 257]:~ The Steep Slopes Ahead

With construction at Brookhaven, we switched gears a little early and hit the channel. I was impressed by our athletes as the largest group we've ever had ventured out to do repeats and on top if it, many did more than they ever had. Just like the past few years, we've had our ups and downs and constantly faced steep slopes on our journey, but those made us stronger, helped us grow, as we didn't back down from what was ahead of us. I've said this many times before, but the challenges of life make us stronger and with this young core, it's starting to take shape and starting to demonstrate that the steep slopes we face, make the day-to-day grind a lot easier. Yes, it would be an easy road if we traveled along on a completely flat road leading to our final destination, but how would we improve our strength, our endurance and our grit without those steep slopes ahead. Life becomes more interesting and memorable when we find these moments and come out of it better than we were before.
