Promoting TGC

[General Ceel]

I started running in high school. In Cross Country I was minutes behind guys doing the same training. As an adult I trained much, much harder, and only briefly found myself faster than I had previously been at the standard 5k distance. Of course my physical and mental strength grew and I was able to cover some big distances over tough terrain. But even then, if you look at where I finished, percentage wise, in the field.. it was pretty much the same place. I was closer to the front of the pack than the back, but the guys ahead of me were still on a different planet.
