“Your real resume is just a cataloging of all your suffering.”

The most interesting and rewarding parts of our lives are often the ones that have required the most sacrifice and hard work. When we suffer (e.g. during rides/runs), we are forced to confront our weaknesses and limitations.
We learn to be resilient and resourceful.
We develop new skills and abilities.
We grow.
In the process, we create a more meaningful life.
If you can keep your smile – bonus points.
