I love this video. As any Back-of-the-Packer knows, triathlon is about victory over yourself. No matter where you start, you can get better and anything is possible. If you have ever been at an Ironman Finish Line as the Midnight cutoff approaches and seen the incredible lovefest between those BOP finishers and their fellow competitors who finished hours ago and have already showered, eaten and come back to the finish to cheer them in then you will know what I mean.  There is just as much human drama, if not more, at this tail end. This is what makes Sport special. But you have to get off the couch yourself and get on the field of battle. Over the next year I intend to make that effort to get better. Tune in for the journey.
