No matter how slow you go, you are still lapping everybody on the couch.

I got up at 4  this morning, got my workout clothes on, got my coffee, drove to the gym for the 5 AM class. 

Most everyone there is younger, faster, and stronger than me. I don't RX many of the workouts; I finish where I finish. I never have the fastest time nor do I lift the most weight. 

My flexibility is not what is used to be and I can't squat as low as I'd like. 

I don't see myself as an athlete.

But from the outside looking in, there are dozens, maybe hundreds of people who WISH they could do what I do. 

So, if  you feel the same way, keep going!! You are miles ahead of the couch surfers!!
