It's not always about you...

Sometimes you have to race for others.

I did a 5k this weekend, and it was a great experience. I didn't set a PR, the course was nothing special, and I didn't even bother with a race t-shirt.

My brother - also a triathlete - raced with me. I paced him to great time, pushed him a little. He did so well that the next day in training, he set a PR on a 13 mile run! (I was lounging here when he did that, and take no credit.)





Helping my brother reach his goal made it a race I will never forget. Whether you raise funds, race friends, or push others to their best, the most rewarding finishes can be when it's not about you.
