Forge Philosophy 5-29-08

“Desire is the key to motivation, but it’s determination and commitment to an unrelenting pursuit of your goal - a commitment to excellence - that will enable you to attain the success you seek.”

Mario Andretti

Yesterday, the Forge completed the following: 1200m run, followed by 50 wallballs, 50 double-unders, 50 sdhp (65), and 50 pushups. I came in at 13:35.

I’ve posted the quote above for 2 reasons: 1) it’s timely 2) I wanted to stress the importance of persistence in the pursuit of goals. This month marks the one year anniversary of my entry into indy crossfit. I shamed my friend John into joining me, and we’ve been suffering together ever since. I think the pictures tell the story of what pure commitment can bring you.

And I’d like to thank John for joining me on this joyously painful journey of fitness.
