Do you feel like you’re on the roller coaster at times? Going with the same plan that doesn’t quite hit the spot? Today we talk about training plans, recovery, re-charging, and figuring out how to hit your best potential as an athlete and person. Adjusting workouts, days off, diet, sleep, etc. You know you can do it, but doing it the right way FOR YOU is one of the biggest challenges in triathlon.

• Workouts are there for you to mold
• Showing yourself grace as an athlete
• Everything we do is done in pencil
• Pushing the emotional needle too far
• The Final Exam

• If you want to go far, go together
