Most of us get into this sport to change something in our lives, and that process can make things more uncomfortable. Sometimes we lean in for upper cuts instead of managing the body blows. Today, we talk about learning what we truly want and how training should help that process vs. digging a deeper hole. We also look at how Ironman is used as a mask or shield and how to let that go by showing yourself grace. Topics: Robbie hits a new age group Mike is a beacon of hope in his 50's Camp is coming Normalizing discomfort People come to triathlon because they "want something" Craving more training to alleviate the discomfort What is so impactful that it can change the way you live Changing pain thresholds You can't train your way into being happy Taking body blows vs. upper cuts Are you jazzed to wake up to an average day? Triathlon as a band aid vs. true healing Ironman depression The quest to be happy Using Ironman as a mask or Shield Looking at the past to justify What's important to us is always changing Robbie talks about getting crushed in his trail race And how he responded to not racing his race The C26 Online Hub is now open to the public!
