I’m a long distance triathlete and ultra marathoner. Training for these events allows me to harness my drive towards achieving seemingly impossible goals. I didn't grow up with formal training in swimming, cycling, or running but I took on the challenge of becoming an endurance athlete as a creative endeavor. You build up the courage to put yourself on the line, every single day. You step into the unknown and you're presented with an opportunity to make something good out of it. You deal with the challenges head on, with grit and passion. It's an arduous process but it brings out the best in you and others. You get to create yourself and a life that is deeply meaningful.
