#490 – Do Uncomfortable Things

It was a Wild weekend of Racing and C26 Triathlon Camping and we get into it all. Plus, we really look at why we might do such a tough sport and what keeps driving people to the finish line. We contend that you must do hard things to improve in life and they create a Ripple Effect across everything you do. Race energy, training breakthroughs, and building confidence.  Topics: - Why do we do this? - Beginnings and Endings - Feeling accomplished - The power of people  - Isolation and the difficulty of sport - Perfection in a bubble  - Race Energy  - Breakthroughs in training - Growing through sport  - Breaking through our limits  - That sense of accomplishment  - Confidence to do whatever it is  - The Ripple Effect - "It wasn't that bad" - The Ego - Question Everything  - Choosing to Underachieve  --------------- Check out our new Hub Experience/Condo Combo package deal for only $475.
