Introduction
Hacksaw Ridge, Edson’s Ridge (aka Bloody Ridge), Kakazu Ridge. What do these Ridges all have in common? They were sites of major WW2 battles in the Pacific theater of war. The brave American soldiers who fought in those battles barely slept and when they did it was in their own filth, or worse among graves of fallen soldiers, all while being shot at and bombed. They had it rough. Guess what? We have it easy, waking up and getting to the gloom to run or work out at 0515.
No excuses today. Come post at The Ridge, log some miles, and get after it.

Run up and over the hill, across the football fields to the path and back. Rinse and repeat.

We frequently talk about coming out at 5am to do hard things. I’ve spent the past couple of weeks listening to an audiobook, “With the old breed at Pelelui” which is the story of WW2 battles in the Pacific. The US soldiers battled through deplorable conditions while battling a ferocious enemy. THAT was hard. Keep that perspective when you encounter challenges that you think are hard.
