Typically, transition is not where we like to hang out. It is that place of feeling lack of trust, weakness and confusion. Transition is uncomfortable. We are forced to make decisions that affect our lives or those around us. Have you ever noticed how you just want to know the answer? I have often had the …
Everyone is faced with challenges, but it’s how you handle those challenges that makes a difference. Last weekend was a true test for me. I ran the Kodiak 50 Mile Ultra at Big Bear.
