When I lose track of where I'm going...

... I remind myself of where I come from, of where I was standing when I began this journey, and of all the things I couldn't do then.

And I see how far I've reached and how strong I've become!

Personal Best at the Gym

I've been to the coast for a whole month, and  I trained in my favourite gym there.

I hit more than a few PRs, and I couldn't avoid being noticed by the guys - especially by the ones who train hard!

This is me leg pressing 100 lbs (3 sets, 15-12-10). I didn't dare to try repeating it - my right tibia paid the price for my reckless fitness euphoria!

Anyway... who can take away my pride and my sense of accomplishment? N.O.B.O.D.Y.!!!

5K Ezeiza Extreme!

I ran my second cross-country & third 5K (for this year) on November 18th. Wow, man! Didn't I sweat!

I was wearing u$s150 running shoes - the well-known Reerun Reebok - and... I couldn't believe my eyes! I slipped and almost fell off a ridge!

But in the end, I got my medal. And I had to be rescued afterwards!

Who came to the rescue? A brave knight on a pale... whooops!, IN a white car! :)

4K - SUCCESS!

I've run my first 4K. 6:56 min/km. 1 minute less per kilometre, and 1 additional kilometre, as my last run in June was a 3K.

I CAN DO THIS!!!

And I will run a 5K in 9 days. I will get to the finish line running. And I will be successful! Victory will be mine!

I GO FOR IT AND I GET IT!


Thanks, Bran, for empowering me to achieve this... And thanks, Pre, for all the inspiration I've got from you!!! PRE LIVES!!!
