Today, we get into why the drive for perfectionism can make things worse and how getting out of your comfort zone can make you a better athlete. We get into Mike’s college frat and constant fear of getting fired along Robbie’s table waiting and rehab days. All focused on how extracurricular activity makes you a more well rounded triathlete.
