Are you Crazy


For anyone out there who has been battling with the a mundane existence, a ground hog day sort of feeling to your days. Stop yourself, look at your life and be bold enough to challenge yourself into changing it.
A friend of mine always used this quote when confronted with a tough decision or a challenge : " I only regret the things I haven't done". I'm sure we've all heard similar lines but hey its what you take out of it. Take the storm the last few days. Sure it was comfy and warm at home watching DVDs, but had you earnt those DVDs ?
I did the first two legs of the Tale Mountain Challenge yesterday. Yes it was hailing at times but awesome, powerful, as one of the other blokes commented. It was way too much for me, I was hurting and I still am, but being out there again made me feel truly alive. I take my hat off to the lads who are doing the full marathon. I limped into Constantia Neck and was truly grateful to see the car waiting for me, but I will be back fitter an stronger next time. I aim to support those running this event in two weeks time. Check it out. There's another challenge waiting.
Are you crazy ?
