All Who Came Before Us

Don’t get too excited, this blog is probably not what you think.

There will always be someone who goes farther, rides faster, and arrives before us (unless you’re the world’s greatest athlete). And thank God for them! They pave the way, they scare the bears, and they help to remind us: we’re not alone; there’s someone else out there blazing the trail ahead. I don’t know about you, but I find that quite comforting. I feel a sigh of relief, an exhale of fear, and confidently keep plugging along – knowing that I still have new heights (and speeds) to aspire to – because of them.

That’s all for tonight. My legs and mind are tired from an 8 mile uphill hike. That or… it’s eight o’clock and the wine is making me second guess my grammar…. I’ll settle for both.
