Summary

Are you willing to do what it takes to climb a mountain or do you prefer a shortcut? People everywhere are doing amazing things and it’s so easy to see but most times we have no idea what they did to get there. Sometimes we have to step back and attack the very thing we failed at because it’s hard and that’s where the growth happens.

Chasing shiny new objects rarely amounts to anything of substance.

Topics:

  • Aging in triathlon
  • Are you really getting slower?
  • Are you accepting your age?
  • Fasting and breath work
  • Vitality in life
  • Counteracting an extreme low
  • Fearing boredom
  • The simplicity of this podcast
  • Do you have the patience to be durable?
  • Phones, dopamine, and pagers
  • Going back to a failure
  • Start over Training Peaks
  • Seeking pleasure instead of nurture
  • Change for the sake of change
