I had a great time working the transition area at the #nolabeltriathlon sprint tri today.
Supporting and watching my #tritribe is tons-o-fun.

This is simply a post from a proud poppa 😀.
Identifying and supporting things that ignite joy and passion in our children are some of life’s greatest gifts.
So happy watching him do something that he loves.
🏄♀️🏄🤘🏾🤟🏾.

Progress 🤩 !
For the first time, I was able to stand up and ride the waves 🏄♂️. In the past, I didn’t have the balance or hip stability to even stay on my knees 🤬.
Consistently practicing 🧘🏾♂️ yoga has resulted in improved hip strength and stability. Of course the benefits go way beyond the surf board. In addition to being able to 🏄, I’m excited about improved biomechanics, better form and a reduced risk of injury 👏🏽.
Pics 9&10- my son is making me proud by making it look so easy!
The progress happens little by little but can show up in unexpected ways. #keeppushing 🤘🏾

I love a new challenge. Currently, the 🧘🏾♂️ crow pose has me tied into knots of frustration. I find it very difficult and holding it is outside of my grasp.
Today I tasted success!! I was able to enter the pose and feel balanced for maybe 2-3 seconds before losing control again. But that was enough for me. A crack in the 🚪or a glimpse of light is all I need to see possibility.
Ha! I’m gonna get it 👊🏾!
#stayfocused - don’t ease up.

I had some early morning fun making videos of my #trifamily in the pool. We all love watching our bodies move in ways that are totally different than what we think it’s doing 🫣.
Then I enjoyed a little trail time 🏃🏾 . Taking things slowly while I nurse a nagging Achilles flare.

I do appreciate the days when all the gears mesh and each training sesh goes according to plan 👊🏾.
Started the day with some strong yet impossibly difficult (currently) poses. Failure is great because it provides new challenges. @athleterevivalyoga
Then intervals in the pool that felt like I was riding on a magic carpet. The flow felt was perfect 🏊🏽 .
I wrapped it up with some Z2-4 intervals on Zwift. Hitting the power numbers just right on each interval 🚴🏽.
Tonight will be good sleep 🛌.
