A More Dangerous Animal
Last year, I got hooked on some novels by Willam Kent Krueger. (Fair warning - they have nothing to do with bikes, training, or getting faster.)
In one book, the main characters are successfully tracking a murderer. They get closer, but the bad guy switches tactics and they lose his trail.
Dismayed, one of the pursuers realizes that the murderer is evolving and adapting during the chase and proclaims, “He has become a more dangerous animal.”
That line has stuck with me.
As you push through hard workouts and suffer to hang with the fast group, remember – you are doing this work to become a more dangerous animal.
See you next time.
Yours in speed,
Steve
P.S. My spirit animal is a brown bear (currently in winter hibernation). Hit me back with what your spirit animal is.
