Let's Do It Together
By Jeff, not Rae!
My friend recently pointed out to me that in the 2008 trailwalk Japan only 93 teams out of 200 finished the hike with all of its 4 members. I have all the confidence in the world in our team, but I can’t help feeling this to be a worrying statistic. That means only 46% of the teams finished as a team. If we really want to finish the walk together, which of course we do, this statistic highlights how important it is for us to work together, offer each other assistance, and continuously motivate each other to finish the walk. There will be times when team members get hurt or feel down, so the other members have to be there for them unconditionally. The statistic also shows us how the individual members of our team must not only be physically prepared, but psychologically prepared as well. This hike is going to be arduous with a capital “Arrh!” so let’s keep that in mind before the day we cross that finish line. Trailbiters UNITE!
