You could say that about a lot of things. Boxing enacts an extreme toll on a boxers body, in training, in match prep and in the fight itself, yet many of them continue to come back to the ring.

Sometimes the thing that is a struggle and exacts a toll has a reward that makes it worth it. It doesnt mean the struggle to get the thing wasn't difficult or debilitating.

You're right and I whole heartdly agree with you.

I was trying to express that exact same idea on my first comment, with obviously disastrous outcome.
