My nemisis

This morning a run was on the schedule. I decided to listen to Kahuna and IronWil's Get your Geek On podcast. It was, as usual, an excellent show and I really enjoyed it. One section had Wil talking about her nemisis. Basically the things that make her train as she does. Things like the wind, the waves, just about everything. This really got me to thinking. My initial gut reaction was that my nemisis was my weight. In a way that's very true. It really is the primary reason I get up every morning and do the things I do. But there's more to it than that. I want to be the best I can be. I want to see just how far I can push my body. What exactly are my limits?? Right now my nemisis is that little box at the right with my goals for this month. I look at it a couple times a day and it mocks me; you won't be able to do this; that's way too much mileage for you; you'll burn out; you'll never make it. Oh yes I will!! I am well on my way and I'm not stopping until I meet or exceed those goals. So having something my action hero can fight against is a good thing. I mean really, what good is an action hero if there's no nemisisto fight????
