"The point of competition is to compete. It's to take on the biggest challenge. When you compete against the very best, it makes you better; I don't care if someone is twenty times better, or one-tenth better. I want to race the best. I hate to lose. But I was not afraid to lose. I am never afraid to lose." Michael Phelps
Just a few weeks ago I raced at the Hog Jog and it was great. My competition was amazing. I had such a great time talking with them after the race. I felt luck to run with college runners and the winner of the race just went professional in running. I had a BLAST. I did not win the overall race but I won my age group and I learned so much.
