Summary

Happy Thanksgiving from the Crushing Iron Podcast. Despite the title, this podcast is more about grace and gratitude.

Today we take a look at how to be thankful for the ABILITY to do triathlon. It's easy to get into a funk, but that doesn't mean your year is ruined and you're not going to have a great season. The key is not BECOMING your rut. When's the last time you were proud of the process of how you emerged from the funk? We may not be where we want to be, but we've made the choice to get there. 

You aren't today's workout 
Dark times and Blessings
Not getting ahead of yourself
Gratitude reminders
Experiences vs. Numbers
When You Should Look Back
Bad places are ok, just don't live there
Crush Whatever You Eat
Recognizing what you've done

into training peaks today yeah what seems like it seems like somebody's on the consistency

0:47.6

train here yeah man I've been I it's been great because it's been hoops season so so I got the trainer set up, and I think I've made a note in there that I'm just trying to get my saddle power up.

1:01.6

Yeah, I noticed that.
