#561 – A Deeper Dive Into Your "Why"

The reasons we do triathlon tends to change and it's good to explore the questions. What makes you happy and feel good? Today, we look at how our why evolves, and how a clear understanding of the process can make training and life more enjoyable. Do you want to keep doing triathlon or is it a phase? Does your “why” put too much pressure on you. How under training can make you a better athlete. And how to not be irresponsible with yourself.  

Topics:

• Back to your “why”
• Being more intentional
• Doing this for yourself
• Long Lines of Addiction
• Weight Loss “why”
• Mike and Robbie’s initial “Whys”
• How things have changed
• Your decisions are your choice
• The “why” Am I doing this?
• Base level why: As Long as possible
• Own that you’re okay for making time for other things
• It’s about where you’re going NOW
• Worry about the approach
• You’re still who you thought you were
• Unhealthy and Irresponsible behavior/training
