If there's a challenge, I face it head on.

That was the biggest challenge I've ever done myself. It was my first marathon. I was almost relieved to see them because I knew I was only 600 yards from the finish line, at that point.

Back when I was 26 years old, I had a brain tumor. I had it removed. They told me it would never come back. Four years later, it came back.

The challenge this week will be to get faster and figure out how to close the gaps. (The race last week) was an eye opener. They will make the biggest change.

I've always loved a challenge.

The challenge is high. The stakes are important. I think it's manageable.
