you go girl!

Sad that this video is 17 years old, and things are likely worse now than they were... But what an inspiration on a day when I really needed it!

Finishing Strong

When you think you've got it pretty rough, watch this for a little inspiration. Thanks, Bev, for the forward.


And for a more "holy" version...


There's lots more on Youtube if you want it. Just search for Nick Vujicic.

unbelievable!

Once you get over the rather disconcerting "costumes" (or lack thereof), these competitors of the 6th International Circus Festival of Budapest, 2006, are simply amazing. When watching this video for the first time, the first question I had was, "How long do you have to train, to build that kind of strength??" My second question was,"How the heck do you practice something like this without getting injured every single time??" All I can say is, this makes my job look pretty easy! (Warning: the video is almost 10 minutes long.)
