I signed up for a 1000K race. That's 635 miles of running. Yeah, I'm a little crazy like that. lol

In the broader context we men have to stay fit.

Sadly, I'm seeing some men in my sphere of social media actually give up. One actually was crying on Facebook. It's sad because crisis is the time when the right men have to shine.

So we have to stay motivated and fit here.

In my world, they have stopped all organized races and triathlons. This is wrecking havoc on everyone, including me. But since we are a goal oriented people, I understand the importance of setting goals to stay motivated. Yeah, sometimes, the goals have to shift in times like these, but it has to be done.

Or we just give up. And I'm never down with that.

Enter virtual races. These races are actually done at home, whether indoors or outdoors, and most will use the data from a GPS watch to upload to the race director so he or she can add it towards your finishing goal.

There are 5k races, 10k races, virtual triathlons.

Then there's this 1000K race, the Great Virtual Race across Tennessee. It's pretty much a doozy, but it will keep me motivated and fit through the summer. At least I think so anyway. ?

Definitely use these virtual races as a tool to get up off the couch. We're going to need good men to fix the mess the betas caused these past 20 years.
