"BE UNBREAKABLE"
Since September 2023's Seattle Spartan Super (10k) I "committed" to making the winter my "in-season" for Spartan races with the goal to make noticeable progress each race.
I did 6 races (appr 1/month) and hoping to kick off again with Hawaii in August and Seattle in September. I reached my intro goal, though, if life allows, I don't want to stop there, and the work (that I enjoy) continues.
I recently realized Spartan has a motto, "BE UNBREAKABLE," written on each shirt and medal received. I reached the goal I had for this intro season, however, interestingly and definitely not short of "set backs" in the form of injuries (a.k.a the body breaking down) and unique obstacles which I'll resist sharing.
If determined to keep going, we can be resilient to find a way to keep moving forward and "build up" the "unbreakable" versions of ourselves. I know each and every one of us all face setbacks along our way towards something good, but let me say, whatever it is you're working towards, "don't stop" and be ready to use each "setback" when "they" come to build your "UNBREAKABLE YOU."
*Also gotta thank the leadership and team for making the schedule work for my weekend Spartan races since I started and the morale boosts to keep going. Personally enjoying utilizing the excellent supplements SN offers to help build my best "unbreakable" self.
