Message: The people I work with are all giving me a hard time, telling me I'm crazy. I guess cause I just had a baby 2 monthes ago and now I want to take on my first sprint. I have until August, I'm confident I can do it.

Message: I get the same thing where I work. You sound like you're confident though, and your mind can make your body do what you tell it to. Just use the jeers as motivation to prove them wrong, and relish the thought of the stunned look on their faces when you complete it.

Message: Hey, dont let anyone talk you down. Stay enthusiastic about it. Everyone thinks I am crazy, including my family, but it doesn't matter, I don't do this sport for them. It may sound selfish, but I do it for me, to prove something to myself. Let me know if that sounds crazy, but I personally feel if you start into a sport because of the image, sex appeal, and all that, then you won't be very good, but if you do it for the love, then you destined for success. Best of luck in training and you CAN and WILL succeed, trust me.
