It's just the reality of the moment. For many of us, our A-races, the ones we have been visualizing and training for, have been either cancelled or postponed. What do we do now?
It's a bit of an endurance athlete existential crisis.
But it doesn't have to be!
Join me for a bit of tough love today. Since your race is cancelled, let's dive in and examine our "Why." We know that in life our reasons need to be stronger than our excuses. If the race itself is the reason, we owe ourselves better!
Then, once we have established some common reasons why we endurance athletes challenge ourselves in this way, it's time for us to identify excuses that might present themselves and ways to overcome them.
Today, I'm all about making sure that you are still moving your body even after this disappointment. Sure, your race is cancelled. That doesn't mean all of your future races will have the same fate. Do you want to show up to your next starting line the kind of woman who took months off nursing her sadness or a resilient, well-trained athlete that never lets anything get in her way?
I thought so.
Maybe you will decide that this is the perfect time to make the jump to multi-sport. If that's the case, then you will definitely need my list of what you do (and DON'T) need to try a triathlon this year. Find it at: https://findingfinishlines.com/try-a-triathlon-gear/
