Summary

Anyone can come up with an excuse, but people who thrive in life figure out ways to get things done. Triathlon comes down to being a strong, durable and resilient athlete. That doesn't happen overnight or one spur of the moment 50 mile ultra. It takes the ability to be satisfied and happy with a lot of "average" days. How do we find the energy to be motivated for today and looking forward to tomorrow?

Topics:

Eating Crow
Game/Race Speed
Consistent Effort
Strong, Durable, Resilient
Keep moving forward
Noosing a way to find resolve
The biggest enemy is in our head
You can always find an excuse
We never look for the opposite belief
Control freaks
Do what’s in front of you
Clean Your Bowl
Not much we can trust
Impulse - Prisoner of the moment
Body & Mind in sync
The first thoughts are wrong
No watch experiment
The conversations we have in our head
Benefits tied to extremes
Great days synonymous with spectacular
There’s no middle anymore
Falling through he branches
Keeping epic energy
Being mediocre as F*ck
Great is the enemy of good
