Summary
It was a Wild weekend of Racing and C26 Triathlon Camping and we get into it all. Plus, we really look at why we might do such a tough sport and what keeps driving people to the finish line. We contend that you must do hard things to improve in life and they create a Ripple Effect across everything you do. Race energy, training breakthroughs, and building confidence.
Topics:
- Why do we do this?
- Beginnings and Endings
- Feeling accomplished
- The power of people
- Isolation and the difficulty of sport
- Perfection in a bubble
- Race Energy
- Breakthroughs in training
- Growing through sport
- Breaking through our limits
- That sense of accomplishment
- Confidence to do whatever it is
- The Ripple Effect
- "It wasn't that bad"
- The Ego
- Question Everything
- Choosing to Underachieve
