As the 2022 triathlon season gets underway, I’ve been working with a number of triathletes, from juniors up to pros. Additionally, I’m practicing what I preach as I prepare myself for a full schedule of racing locally, nationally (USAT Multisport Festival in Texas in April and USAT National Age-group Championships in Milwaukee in August), and [...]
In my last post, I described how we often view situations in our lives as life or death despite the fact that our physical lives aren’t in any danger.
