    So true indeed. Does not matter the ability level. I often come across people that say "I'm not an athlete", which I always correct them. Regardless of one's ability and competitive level, if one trains, and laces up the shoes and enters the race, you're an athlete plain and simple. You cannot win or lose if you never enter the race!
