"At the peak of tremendous and victorious effort, while the blood is pounding in your head, all suddenly comes quiet within you. Everything seems clearer and whiter than ever before, as if great spotlights had been turned on. At that moment, you have the conviction that you contain all the power in the world, that you are capable of everything, that you have wings. There is no more precise moment in life than this, the WHITE MOMENT, and you will work hard for years, just to taste it again."

Our special world
I've rarely seen anything but tri stuff posted on a triathlon bog. So I may be breaking somekind of BLOG LAW. But I wouldn't be able to spend so much time training and racing if it wasn't for my wifes support, love, and dare I say financial backing. She desrves a little recognition, and some atention. She is shy so I may get an earfull for posting a poem for her on the enternet. Regardless of how much teasing from my friends I'll get from this, here it is:
A special world for you and me
A special bond one cannot see
It wraps us up in its cocoon
And holds us fiercely in its womb.
Its fingers spread like fine spun gold
Gently nestling us to the fold
Like silken thread it holds us fast
Bonds like this are meant to last.
And though at times a thread may break
A new one forms in its wake
To bind us closer and keep us strong
In a special world, where we belong
Thanks Babe. Without you I'd still be fat(ter) and unmotivated.
