Here are 2 pretty awesome videos that I watched this past week - both inspirational in very different ways!
1. Amit Bhai posted this video. It's about an hour long but totally worth the time! Like Amit said "Forget those stupid motivational self-improvement books and workshops.....just watch this video!!" :)

Oh..and by the way, I have a huge crush on Chrissie Wellington now - my new heroine!!! :)

2. This one was fwded to me by a work colleague and moved me to tears! It makes me really appreciate the fact that I am able to do crazy things like run 26.2 miles and take part in Tris - and will defn be something I will look back on when I have a bad training day and all I feel like doing is whining!

Thnx for sharing some real cool videos! U just can't help being in awe.. Quite inspiring, to say the least!
Here's an amazingly remarkable story, which I happened to come across the other day, and find it too good not to share, esp in the context of some of the videos u have shared:
