April Fool

April 1, 2008 at 9:40 PM - 3 comments - link

Not to be confused with the office or team prankster, this fool shows up on a daily basis. There are so many ways to be lost in what can become the daily rigors of training. Fools get lost in the hype of who ran what and where, and who’s doing what and how. Lack of focus on the task at hand, leads to an unsuccessful swipe to recapture it with the other.

 

It’s hard enough to stay focused on what it is you need to do to accomplish your season’s goals, so why revel in another mans victory or defeat? They pay you no mind April Fool, so stop debiting from your own success account. What you must overcome to get where you want to go should be ruminating in your mind incessantly. A fraction of a second thought to another person’s success or transgressions can never supersede your own.

 

Today is the day to be most cognizant of this trap April Fool, check yourself, don’t be the running joke.  When you win people talk about your race, when you lose YOU talk about your race. Hmmm….think about it.

 

But I am sure you already knew that April Fool.

 

In health and riches,

Tyrone

GREAT WORDPLAY, TR. I LIKE THE USAGE. NOW LETS JUST HOPE THAT THESE "CADBURY BUNNIES" FIND THEIR WAY, BECAUSE TRUTH BE TOLD, THEY'RE FOOLING NO ONE BUT THEMSELVES. A MESSAGE TO APRIL FOOL: PLAY YA PART. ITS EASIER FOR US ALL THAT WAY. PREACH.

Great!

did you ever make it down here? I know you didn't get to run so hopefully you stayed up north. Especially if you didn't hit me up while you were down here!
