Chasing The Dream

Courage is the ability to confront fear, pain, danger, uncertainty, or intimidation. Everyone has big dreams, but not everyone has the courage to chase those dreams. I myself have to dream of one day making it to D2 nationals and to break the Indian National Record. Not just a dream of nationals though I want to have the courage to chase a dream for myself, to make myself happy, not others. I have been training harder than I have ever trained pushing my body to the limits. Running until I can't even pick up my legs up for another step. I have been told that Rome wasn't built in one day. But it was built with a whole lot of blood, sweat, tears.

I train everyday to make myself better, to get myself one step closer to finishing my Rome. Sometimes there are set backs. Everything in life happens for a reason, breaking my hand was just what I needed. I have been able to take a step back and put things into perspective. I have been able to reevaluate what is important and what needs to be fixed. It has been about 5 weeks since I have broken my hand and I have been working on just getting better. All of my fall training has been setting me up to train myself into the ground this winter break to come back in the spring and be the best that I can be.

Some may call it ignorance but I refuse not to make it. I have put to much of my blood, sweat, and tears into what I love to do, Pole Vault. There are always the non believers in everything, your to this or that, but I refuse to become a believe of these pessimists. Its time to be the grand optimist. I can do it. I will do it. And you will see me do it. The hardest journey begins with the first step, and my first step happens today. 

Wolf pack is going to nationals.
