Thoughts on the upcoming comps and thursday workout

12 weeks out from The Las Vegas Comp.  I know everyone will not be there but we should have enough for a team.  Nationals will be 3 weekends after that in San Diego.  There seems to be a lack of motivation right now, I have to say I understand.  Not having a nationals on the schedule yet is part of that, but no worries its in San Diego.

We are also on the brink of the start.  Not the start of the season but the start of the training.  We all know what it entails.  Spending the extra time going down to 6 instead of heading home or to the coffee shop.  It means hard work.  It means sacrificing certain things to get together with your team to have a good practice.  It means pain, sweat, another rep, another round, another drag, another keiser.  It means concentration on the little things to shave a second here or there.  Believe me I know the dread.  Its a huge commitment.

But there is opportunity here.

We can and should be National Champions this year.  There is no reason we shouldn't be.  We have the talent and the guys to do it.  Lets start getting together once in a while to train.  It does not have to be a ton.  We just have to get that first practice complete.  Thats it.  If we get together doing the same thing with a goal in mind I guarantee the Fire will be lit.

Everyone is stronger right now than they were this time last year, thats a fact.  Now lets put that strength to work.

We now stand at the bottom of the mountain looking up at the steep slopes thinking "fuck me thats a big fucking mountain"  You only have to climb it once and every step you take is a step you don't have to repeat.  It all builds off your last efforts and the steps you have already taken.

I will say one thing.  I have a affinity to winning.  I also have a deep hatred to loosing.  If we do the things we have to do and put every effort to purpose, we win.....We win as a team.  We win with everyone running bad ass PRs. then we are done and someone can throw a bad ass Halloween Party.
