the 100

Description

Moving Forward Joost Reijns and Sebastiaan Verschuren are on their way to the Olympic Games of Rio de Janeiro 2016. Joost Reijns Joost missed London 2012 because of his health after an incredible 2011 short course season where he became a European finalist. He had to start from scratch after intensive chemotherapy, and he is willing to do everything it takes to achieve his goal: the Olympic final of the 200 meters freestyle.

The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place and I don't care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard you hit. It's about how hard you can get it and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done! Now if you know what you're worth then go out and get what you're worth. But you've got to be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you want to be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain't you! You're better than that!"
