Ever feel like you are the only crazy nut who likes doing the things you do? OOOOOoo..... Pick me, pick me!

My entire 24 years of existence has been plagued by this. I was always the kid who was called the 'suck up' to the coach because I asked for more conditioning. Was I?... No! I was just the crazy 6,12,18,21 year old kid who happened to love the way I felt after I finished a long hard work out. I just recently was sick, and all my friends blamed it on the fact that I work out too much. Was it? I don't think so........ Is a 45 minute swim and 45 minute bike ride too much? Not in my head..... Not when you enjoy what you do.....

Granted there are the days.... yes there are days I don't feel like it, yes there are days I take off. But in general, I love exercise, I love athletics, I love competition.

I am glad that I have come across Iron Venus. It gives me a connection to fellow 'nuts'. Ok you all aren't nuts, I am not nuts, others just think we are...... And thats ok! Let them keep on thinking..... They can't do what we do... that is until they take the Iron Venus challenge to change their life.

So here's to you, to me, and all those who will be..... Keep on, Keeping on!
