The "gray area" of life (and training) is the most confusing. Do you go where you want to go, or look for someone else to tell you the right way? You should try to understand the black & white, but own the gray. How do you feel about skipping a workout? The way to learn is to push the boundaries . . . and remember that everything is connected. As always, we connect training to difficult decisions in life and today, we look at making decisions on the go. Whether it workouts, work, parenting, etc. . . lessons are learned by experience. And accepting that experience. Do you beat yourself up for "Wrong decisions?" It's time to stop doing that, and work through them with people that matter. TOPICS: The Gumby 5k It's a great time to be flexible Encouraging ownership of flexibility Get it done, and do it right Ridding the guilt with you, friends, family Disappointed "future self?" When a coach alleviates stress Keeping "within the spirit" of your workouts People that can encourage your individuality Our realities are different and relative Ryan Holiday - The Obstacle is the Way We need people to empower our decisions Links of a chain . . . Working intervals into long rides The maturity level of knowing when to break a streak The addictive nature of endurance We all have the ability to get addicted to something The frustrations of thing not going your way… When people choose you to take out their frustration Turn training into "me time" first 45 minutes to yourself to be me and feel me Accumulated life fatigue from not taking time to yourself The social media feed of angst When we stew in our own muck How do you handle skipping workouts? Coaches should want athletes to KNOW THEMSELVES This journey is for YOU You missing the race or the journey? "A man who isn't his own doctor is a fool." Building layers of confidence on yourself Letting go to the lesson When you "own it" it's more valuable There is no copy and paste life ---------------- The C26 Online Hub is now open to the public!
