One day whilst on my hard bicycle ride, someone rode past me, and as he did, asked me a question, "What are you training for?" the man asked, in response I said, "The big race", the man looked confused, he then said, "Oh how many miles is that?", I then said to him, "There isn't any miles, well, I mean the big race could be 5 miles, or 5 million miles, no one really knows, it's up to the person how many miles he does", the man looked even more puzzled, he said to me, "So what's this race called my friend?", in response, I simply replied to him, "Life, it's one of the hardest rides out there, no one can win this race, not even Lance Armstrong himself, it has as many hills as you create, as many miles as you set yourself and as many goals and achievements as you wish, there is no limitations or rules, I think I'm going to try be the most memorable rider in this race after all, we only live once", the man simply smiled and rode off into the distance.
