In the world of track and field, it’s easy to get caught up in the competitive spirit and let your emotions get the best of you. But as Bryson learned during a practice event yesterday in Winona, a little humility can go a long way.

Bryson’s relay team dominated.

After his relay team’s convincing victory, Bryson’s confidence soared. The ease with which he and his teammates had dominated the race filled him with a sense of invincibility. As he stood on the starting line of the 800m race, his heart pounding with anticipation, Bryson knew that he was ready to take on any challenger.

As the race began, Bryson took off like a shot. He was determined to win, and he wasn’t going to let anyone beat him. But as he approached the final lap, he could see that his opponent was not going down easily. Bryson started to self motivate, and he began to mean mug his opponent. This only seemed to motivate his opponent, who surged ahead in the third corner, never looked back, and won the race.

I was disappointed and I believe Bryson was too. He couldn’t believe that he had lost. He had let his ego get in the way of his performance.

If Bryson had been more humble, he might have been able to win the race. He might have been able to focus on his own running and not worry about his opponent. But instead, he let his emotions get the best of him, and he paid the price.

The lesson that Bryson learned in Winona is an important one. It’s a lesson that all track and field athletes need to learn. Humility is a virtue, and it’s something that can help you succeed in both life and sport.
