The thing I think your read...Hey Jules - nice blog!<br />The thing I think your readers should know and understand is that while you felt you were lucky that we "let" you train with the gang - I KNOW I speak for the gang when I say they felt lucky to be training with you. You're spirit was infectious - and your work ethic was unmatched. Everyone loved having you there!Skippy Two Shoeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09733770471584253701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8021154093098498497.post-80708922187464686842010-03-29T20:17:01.951-06:002010-03-29T20:17:01.951-06:00Being alone in your head might might be scary, but...Being alone in your head might might be scary, but I like it. Think of how scary it would be if you *weren't* alone in your mind! How does that song go "There's someone in my head, but it's not me".<br /><br />My take is that Julie only compares herself to the Julie in her head.

I need to comment on what Cath...Julie - great post. I need to comment on what Cath said - I have seen you focus on your goals since the day I met you. I have never heard you say you want to beat this person or do better than that one - you just don't do it - you are above that petty stuff. You are focused, determined, positive athlete who digs deep when needed for no one other than yourself because when YOU go home at the end of a race day it is YOU who knows you left it all out there and knowing that it was keeps you focused to push hard, get faster and leave it all all there again the net day. Sure, you might reel in a guy in lime green shoes, you might use the person ahead of you to dig deeper but whether you train alone or in a group -it matters not - the conversations in your head would be the same - you challenge yourself enough that you do not have to worry about anyone else out there!!! I am glad you have had the chance to take part in things like this that feed your spirit :)Jennahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16271587857910381627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8021154093098498497.post-28306827693254170182010-03-28T17:20:50.805-06:002010-03-28T17:20:50.805-06:00Cool beans!

You've had a great time, I know - though I have to say I think you do know a LITTLE about swimming, biking and running too :)<br /><br />Just had a funny thought - you say if you're the kind of person who's always comparing yourself next to the other swimmer/ biker or runner, well as there's never anyone else around that's a bit difficult - apart from when you swim with me, I guess - hahahaha!<br /><br />xxxCathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07724813805713962903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8021154093098498497.post-25852608790727366502010-03-27T20:03:00.441-06:002010-03-27T20:03:00.441-06:00Nice topic and great points, thanks for sharingNice topic and great points, thanks for sharingBig Daddy Dieselhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07868041775049514011noreply@blogger.com
