How many pegs down

As, by virtue of their athletic lifestyle, most have none of the usual cardiac risk factors. High blood pressure, smoking, diabetes and obesity are infrequent concerns for the competitive athlete. A more vexing, and highly intangible problem for those who compete is the notion of self-worth. And this is important for the heart, as those who reach inner peace with themselves clearly have less inflammation—less chronic unremitting stress.

The heart at peace just rolls on rhythmically, like a cyclist with an endless tailwind. A wise friend, on a long car ride, once taught me about the metaphor of the pegs in your coat rack.

For cyclists, an important question to ask ourselves, is how much of our self-worth do we hang on just one peg, the cycling peg for instance? If the answer is a lot, the peg had better be a strong one. The most obvious example of having a strong cycling peg is Lance. Eventually, though, even his cycling peg will wear down and break. Like his peers, Michael Jordan, Roger Clemons, Brett Farve, to name just a few of many, did Lance return to competition after retirement because as a highly focused professional athlete there are few other pegs in which to hang self-worth upon?
