THE HILL

….AND I KNOW I AM MADE FOR MORE.
AND BY BECOMING MORE, I AM CHALLENGED TO CHOOSE SUFFERING,
TO ENDURE PAIN, TO BEAR HARDSHIP…

AT FIRST, THE GENTLE SWELL…
BUT GRADUALLY THE HILL DEMANDS MORE AND MORE.
I HAVE REACHED THE END OF MY PHYSIOLOGY,
THE END OF WHAT IS POSSIBLE,
AND NOW IT IS BEYOND WHAT I CAN STAND.
THE TEMPTATION IS TO SAY “ENOUGH.”
THIS MUCH IS ENOUGH,
BUT I WILL NOT GIVE IN.

I AM FIGHTING GOD.
FIGHTING THE LIMITATIONS HE GAVE ME.
FIGHTING THE PAIN.
FIGHTING THE UNFAIRNESS.
FIGHTING ALL THE EVIL IN ME AND THE WORLD.
AND I WILL NOT GIVE IN.
I WILL CONQUER THE HILL
AND I WILL CONQUER IT ALONE.

7 days and counting...

Trial run through 7/11 at Smithville Lake

We're ONE WEEK away!!!
