Triathlon was my life.

I spent 7 years in the sport.
I was winning races, training with world record holders, and travelling the world to train and race more and more...
But I was blinded by the darkside of competition.
But what was it all for?
It was all to prove something. Sure I may have enjoyed the training most of the time, but I was always training FOR something. With so much expectation of the outcome. Never really just training for the sheer enjoyment of the training itself.
I trained to race, and I raced to win. But in the proccess, I gave up my creative pursuits to pursue extreme, physical exertion. Guess it was all just a phase...
I've now learned that I'd rather create than compete.
That I'd rather cooperate and work together on something epic than to work solo and prove that I'm better than someone at something, or have someone prove they're better than me.
Like who cares who's better? Let's just feel good and share good feelings with each other.
We live in an abundant universe. It's time to share everything we've got before we die!
