This Is Me In Black And White

Triple Threat
This is me in black and white
Ready to take on the biggest challenge of my life
Endurance, endurance, and more endurance
Is this soft kitty ready to promote herself and run with the big dogs

What if I fold
Will my pride be hurt
Would I blame myself for not giving it all I got

Only to go home empty handed
Only to live with mental regrets I didn't complete

Head bowed in amazing grace
Asking my God for the biggest favor to allow these weary bones to cross the finish line
When those nationalities are at the starting line, yet, isolation grips you

The only thing that matters at that moment is can I move
Should I move

Adrenaline spiking
Heart pounding
Feet getting restless
When you hear that gun pop
It is you against yourself
The wind, the elements, time, pace, heat, the crowd
 
No one can pull you through but self
No one can fail you but self

My days are counting down
The closer I get to fulfill a two year self-determination dream
The more I am getting antsy to just do it, run, fly

This is nothing compared to the surge of anticipation I usually get before any marathon run
This is more like a mental dread of the unexpected, blazing into the unknown

I have disciplined and trained for this event in my awaken hours
This is what I do, who I am
The triple threat of, swimming, cycling, and running
This has to be the first time, I must say I wish I had two more clones
