every session has the opportunity to be of quality it's just a matter of how many doors you're going to have open to allow it to come in

this isn't life or death this is a run this is nothing to be devastated about this is a one run and you've got to reshape the way that you think. And because, again, like the

enormity of the pressure that people put on themselves, you will break and you will crumble and you

will quit.

Good morning, Meyer.

Hey, man, did you have to Christmas?

Oh, yeah.

Besides, you got stuck.

We're not stuck, but first off, before we go into our regular ketchup, chit-chat, welcome.

Crushing Iron Podcast, 333.

Yeah, it is. 333. That's what I thought. Podcasts 333. This is a triathlon-related podcast. We cover all things.

Traathlon, swim-bike run, nutrition, training, races, race recaps, race previews, sometimes as even race directors, and also most frequently the ones that we go to and participate in. But we do. We cover it all. We cover

training, and then we also cover a lot of life. We cover how they intersect, how they complement

each other, and oftentimes, unfortunately, can take away from each other.

We do our best to have an open conversation and dialogue that's unscripted and with no sponsors and ads to interrupt,

but just kind of a constant thought stream of what we're going through, what we're thinking, advice, tips,

and then most of the time it's just put out there in a format so you can take away what

you want from it and hopefully apply it to your training and to your life to hopefully set

you up for success better in your triathlon journey.

We get those from our own personal experiences, but both as Mike and our both coaches

and athletes, we are fortunate enough to work with a lot of awesome people who also have incredible stories and also frequently have obstacles to overcome.

And we can, we take a lot of, we will, we learn a lot, one, from the athletes that we work with.
