Encounter

Ended up crawling home again.... I remember it used to be slightly easier in the past. It was faster too last time. Anyway I was thinking how Tour riders do this for 21 stages, one rest day between about every 7, and each stage longer and with mountains to climb. Oh, and each stage is a race huh...

How the hell do you win 7 Tours in 7 consecutive years? While the best man probably just rises to the top 'naturally', the sheer amount of pain and suffering to get there is definite. And it can only be sustained by a really strong conviction.

I realise I have never found such strong desires to succeed. The level of seriousness to perform is just not the same. It is more a form of recreation and simple exercise than anything else. I'll need to set attainable and visible goals to work towards.
