Title: Excuses Post by: Ted Leblow on January 05, 2008, 11:22:45 am A new Nike commercial on Youtube link below is pretty good. It is called "No Excuses" and pretty much says it all.

Title: Re: Excuses Post by: Josse on January 05, 2008, 01:46:57 pm I like stuff like this because I think we all feel sorry for ourselves once in a while. This is a wake up call. I watched this show on tv last night about a guy who was born without legs. He uses a skateboard mostly to get around. It was very inspiring and taought me alot on how to raise a daughter in a wheelchair. She is my inspiration and my wake call when I am feeling down on myself when I can't run. Be thankful for what we have and work hard on that.

Title: Re: Excuses Post by: Jeff Frodsham on January 06, 2008, 09:39:45 pm I love this video. Not going to lie, I cried the first time I watched it. We also watched it this last Cross Country season. It is a little different than the Nike comercial but it is also a lot the same, I think they go along together well.

It reminds me of a guy I watched on the telecast of the most recent Ironman Triathlon in Hawaii. Scott Rigsby, a double amputee, the first such person to ever complete an Ironman. http://scottrigsby.com/ Title: Re: Excuses Post by: Jeff Frodsham on January 09, 2008, 07:10:20 am Scott Rigsby. Wow, that is a cool story. Very motivational!
