Have you ever been told you can't do something or think maybe you're physically not capable of doing something that you would like to do? Then this is for you:
Believe in yourself; chase the seagulls!
At least once a week I take the dog to the beach so he can have a big hoon around, usually I spend the whole time laughing at him and his antics cos watching a dog hoon around at the beach is quite entertaining. Last week when we were at the beach it was low tide and there were quite a few seagulls hovering around the tideline. Zac thinks its great fun to chase them, little does he know that he has very little chance of ever catching one. Everytime he would race towards them they would just fly away. He would cruise back to me and then race off again after the next seagull. I got to thinking and realised that as far as he is concerned it is possible to catch one of those seagulls, you see he doesn't understand 'can't' or 'why' as far as he is concerned he believes that one day he will catch a seagull. I got to thinking about how often people tell us we can't do something eg Ironman, C2C, that we can't finish a race within a certain time etc and figure that if we believe in ourselves enough we can do those things, achieve those goals and dreams, so believe in yourself and keep chasing those seagulls, one day you'll catch one!

I was so excited, I commented before I had even read your blog!
Zac is a wise dog, or a silly one. ;-) Either or, you're right - he teaches us all a good lesson!
I also was very excited to see a post.
May this be the first of many more to come.
Nice one Zak. If only we could all have the freedom and simplicity of a dogs mind.
Sometimes being a more complex creature can be a real pain in the ass.

Hey Nades, Great to read your blogs again, and your new layout looks really cool! Thats so true about you saying if you believe you can do it, then you will. It's getting me motivated to organise a training plan again! Woot!
