I cannot take credit for this, but thought it was appropriate for several of us triathlon junkies. I could not find the original author online to give appropriate credit to. Enjoy!
In my world,
The water is cold,
The wind is hard,
And the road never ends.
In my world,
There are no losers.
Only competitors
still on their way,
And spectators
waiting to be inspired.
In my world,
Victory is not weighed in gold,
But in determination and courage.
In my world,
There are no boundaries,
No limits,
There is no end.
Every day is the last day of my life,
And the first.
In my world,
The word “can’t” does not exist,
And nothing is impossible.
