222 - Pushing Through Limits

It's been a few months since I completed a triathlon. Unlike most people, I didn't congratulate myself on a job well done or feel any positive feelings about it. Not. at. all. No matter who said they were inspired or gave their accolades, I wasn't having it. I did finish. So, yea! The minute I started the race I knew something was off. I was in slow motion and felt like I was carrying a load of 100 extra pounds. No amount of effort, prayer, or affirmations could change it. For some reason, I had some things to learn on this journey. Here I am, months later, finally willing to share an episode that I recorded in October. The race was at the end of July. I will do it again. Training starts soon and I know it will be different. My leg is healing. My heart will at some point. And I'm actually going to implement the good ideas, like riding a racing bike instead of a life-changing heavy duty Huffy mountain bike from Walmart. But I will use THAT crazy bike for training. Grateful for the family and friends that have been on the journey. These experiences are life-changing in good ways if we let them be. YouTube: https://youtu.be/bRccV1xSo9M
