reality hits

I know that some think that it is just grand that both mark and i are into triathlon. That we can understand what it means to commit and do the training and the hours spent. But consider this - it doesn't mean that it makes it any easier to handle the hours we spend on training apart from each other even if he's at the front of the pack and i'm at the back. Take a read on the following article posted on xtri.com - you can have the same ideals and wants but if there's no communication, it can still all fall apart. The grass always does look greener on the other side, doesn't it?
