What makes YOU feel tough?

As I was midway through a two hour pouring-rain-rollerski this morning, I started to think about what makes me feel tough, which made me wonder what makes other people feel tough?
For me, it's doing workouts in crappy conditions that would make a sane person say "Hell no."
Nothing makes me feel like more of a badass than hillbounding in rain/hail/snow/mud. This morning made me feel pretty tough because it was 6AM, pouring rain, and everyone else is passing me in their heated cars with hot cups of coffee in their hands.

But what makes you fell tough? And do you do workouts specifically to make yourself tougher?

    Lol, because i can do that in the rain!
    I agree with Joe on this one, i do feel the best mentally when the weather is crappy or the conditions are hard. Of course that might change if i had a mutimillion dollar heated barn to practice in...
