~:[CH13 - Day 232]:~ Overcoming
The heat was a bit of a concern so I prepared to adapt my workouts for the day, but this group is resilient. From the start, they didn't complain much, as they rolled up their sleeves and got to work. I love the grit that this group has shown as they overcome a number of obstacles to get where they are. It would be easy to take the short route like many did today, but a decent sized group did the maximum. We trailed along their run to make sure everyone was good, but they all made it safely around the route, accomplishing a difficult task under difficult conditions. In our own lives, we're going to face adverse conditions and we have the choice to roll up our sleeves and have at it or we can shy away and stay comfortable. Obviously, there will be days that we will be defeat, but for the most part, our ability to challenge ourselves will leave ourselves in a better place. Daily, this group has reminded me of this. Challenge myself and don't back down. At times I'll be uncomfortable, at times, I'll have to raise the white flag, but regardless, I can prove to myself that I'll at least give it a shot. Don't sell yourself short and find out what you can do. Don't allow the doubts of life stop you from moving forward and don't be afraid of the challenging road ahead, as you can overcome it just like this group of athletes has shown me, time and time again.
