Re: [RC] Training Facilities (was too quiet) - Truman Prevatt

PS Barbra, I screwed up also :-).

But all sports at the highest level is a rich man's sport. If it is a high paid professional sport like basketball, tennis, track ( and this is only recently since I didn't get any benefit of it :-( ), etc., you are already getting the bucks from either playing on a profession team, the professional circuit or endorcements.  If it's not a paid sport you have to have the bucks to pay yourself.

Life is not fair - that's what the UAE seems to have brough home. That's not good nor bad, just an observation.

But in high stakes sports - and they condsider it high stakes sports - that what it takes. If we are not willing to step up to the table then we won't win. As they say in the south, "if you don't want to run with the big dogs, then get off the pourch."



The trouble is this turns it into a rich man's sport which is not what our (AERC) endurance is all about.  Some of us are willing but can't play.  It seems we have come full circle in this discussion, eh?
