Episode 891
Tuesday, 18 November, 2025
Is your REAL goal to be fast, healthy, or just have a good time with training and racing? Today, we talk about why it's important to define your true aspirations in the sport so you can come to an internal agreement with yourself as the year rolls on. It's not uncommon for athletes to go through an identity crisis many times a year. We get into some of our personal struggles as we look at finding our sweet spot with training, racing, and life. We also look at clashing value systems and how that can make things tougher. ----------- Looking for a great way to empower your training, explore your limits, and exist in the moment?
