#decathlon

It took me time to realize that the men who won Olympic gold medals in the decathlon are just men, just like me. ↗

The decathlon includes ten separate events and they all matter. You can't work on just one of them. ↗

To me, the decathlon is its own little society and I am part of that culture. ↗

There's never going to be a decathlon that you're going to have 10 events that your satisfied with. You're always, always going to be dissatisfied in something, and that always draws you back to try to retry that the next time you do a decathlon. It's like you go for the perfect 10. ↗

If you're going to dedicate every second to winning the decathlon, what are you doing wasting your time in bed? ↗

The great thing about this is, and not to pump my own tires, but I feel like I'm not maximized yet. I feel like I can still run faster, jump higher, which I think makes it special. Hopefully, going to London, I'll be welcomed into the decathlon community. ↗
