Quote

We sped on, across the plains, toward Metz. I hung back, saving myself. It is called the Race of Truth. The early stages separate the strong riders from the weak. Now the weak would be eliminated altogether.

Cancer taught me a plan for more purposeful living, and that in turn taught me how to train and to win more purposefully.

Pain and loss are great enhancers.
