As a kid growing up, I made some bad choices, took some wrong roads, and had reached a point in life where I felt lost, unmotivated and had no real purpose. I really don’t know why, but I just randomly decided I’d try a Terra Firma Sprint Adventure Race. I started my training by attempting to run the ¼ mile around my block…and boy, what a wake-up call! I came to find out that living a fast and hard life while spending my free time on the couch left my body wrecked. One lap around the block and I had to walk, so I started riding my bike to school twice a week – it wasn’t pretty.
