Tate -

Man, I did not realize you got hit by a car. One of the RT guys told me you were injured, did not think anything of it. To answer your question, I think you should quit. Hang em’ up and take up the “hearty challenges of lawn care”. Or you could get busy kickin ass and use this all as fuel for the fire…..

thanks for your posting thoughts…
i can’t pretend to have any idea what is next for you - and can’t imagine what it was like - all the shock, anger, frustration, and every other emotion possible…but everyone appreciates you and is so thankful that you’re okay!!! keep us posted, for sure! :o)

I do not believe we know each other, but my heart broke when I heard your story. I spent a few years in triathlon, aiming to be a top pro, and experiencing the victories and losses. I have not experienced an accident like yours.
Now what? All cliches aside, one step at a time. One of the most depressing and demoralizing things to do, is to try and regain the fitness and form you had prior to your accident all at once. You are a fit and skilled person, and you will reach that form again. Just look to progress in the events you can train in now. Use the training as a break from your MBA studies and a time that you know will benefit you in future days. Reset your base, and then think about performance and that wonderful feeling of amazing fitmess. You will reach that place again if you can break it down and focus on the steps it is going to take to get there.

Good luck, man.
Blessings,
Jason Finch

Good one Jones. Now you can go out to Leadville. Get in as many cycling races as you can while you’re not doing tris!
