I want to begin with some basic content that a few folks asked me to share right off the bat, mostly regarding motivation. Triathlon is a sport that requires motivation in spades! It requires constant diligence and dedication, and dare I say slightly more optimism that many other sports. Few other spots beat you up physically 15-20 hours per week, on both land and water. There are times during races when you feel like not only have you performed underneath yourself, but so poorly that you consider dropping the sport completely off your calendar. This is a mental constant struggle for triathletes trying to become more competitive, and many of us have at least one race that marks the low water mark of our confidence, so to speak, that makes us want to throw in the towel.
Personal resilience is EVERYTHING.
