No Excuses

Purple. The odds are against me. Too slow. Too old. Self-doubt. Having a baby. Just had a baby. No time. No training partner. The kids need me. It’s dark out. It’s too early. I’m tired. I have to work. It hurts. I’m scared they’ll laugh. Doctor said I shouldn’t. Can’t find a sitter. Life is too busy. I look in the mirror and don’t see a runner. What if I fail? No more excuses ... I’m doing this anyway.
