Summary
It's very easy to isolate in triathlon, but when we truly recognize that we're not alone in this journey, it changes the game. Today we take a look at how that happens . . . usually over time . . . and what it can mean to our overall satisfaction in life. Triathlon is just one part of our lives, but it can be very fulfilling if we approach it from an angle of connection. Mike and Coach Robbie dive into their past struggles and explore the role triathlon has played in shaping a more positive outlook for their lives.

| 0:13.0 | I'm feeling like this gloomy weather is well-timed. |
| 0:17.9 | Yes, it is. |
| 0:19.8 | Yeah, it is easing my decision to take advantage of and absorb a, |
| 0:28.0 | either A, very easy day via Just-Twim, or maybe even B, just soak in a nice day off. |
| 0:36.5 | Whoa. |
| 0:40.9 | Yeah, I haven't made a decision one way or the other yet. |
