When I started riding a bike a couple of years ago, I didn't think my involvement would ever be more serious than the occasional short ride. But as I built strength, my friends   1   me to step up my training and try some longer trips. The first one to come along was a 150-mile trip, the MS-150, an annual    2   that raises money to fight Aids.

     When I registered, the idea seemed fantastic---support a worthy cause while going for the distance---and I trained with 3   . However, as the time for the ride approached, my self-doubts   4   beyond my endurance（忍耐）. I   5  wanted to raise money for the charity, but I didn't really want to bike all those miles for two days straight.

     The ride began on a beautiful Sunday morning in the Georgia countryside, and for the first few hours I felt   6    .This was just the experience I had   7   , and my spirits were high.     8   by the end of the day, I felt tired out.

     If the body is  9   to the mind, here was evidence. Every   10    my brain pushed out seemed to travel right down to my legs. "I can't handle this" became a leg cramp （抽筋） , and "everyone else is a better rider" translated into    11   of breath. I was sure I'd have to   12   .

     As I topped the crest （頂）of a hill, the beautiful sunset kept me going for a few minutes more. Then in the distance, I saw a lone woman riding very slowly    13    the bright red sun. I    14   that the person looked different in some way, but I couldn't tell why. So I pushed myself to   15   . There she was, riding along slowly but   16   , with a slight and determined smile on her face and she had only one leg.

     My focus changed in that instant. For a whole day I'd been   17    my body. But now I knew it wasn't the body, but the    18   that would help me reach my goal.

     It rained all the second day. I never saw the one-legged biker again, but I pushed on without   19   , knowing she was out there with me somewhere. And at the end of the day, still feeling  20    , I completed the 150-mile trip.
