Good luck to my #pearlandtriathlonracingclub peeps as you take on #im703lubbock this weekend.
I’ve enjoyed taking a couple weeks to stop, smell the “roses” and feel the joy of watching my son be happy doing what he loves 🏄♂️ 🌊.
🤨 I’m starting to feel the itch…🏊🏽 🚴🏽 🏃🏾.

No training sessions today, just some awesome bendy-stretchy 🧘🏾♂️ recovery time for my sore muscles.

Medal Monday & Ironman 70.3 Eagleman rapid race recap.
Although I didn’t meet my ego-driven target of a sub 6hr finish, I did smash two important goals. They were to swim and bike harder than I’ve done in the past. I haven’t had the courage to get outside my comfort zone and risk blowing up.
I did that shit this time!
Swim - 35min a PR ✅ and I still had more to give.
Bike - 2h57min, not the fastest time but definitely the strongest effort by far - Average power of 247 Watts which is a PR ✅. Surprisingly, my legs were not trashed…there was more in the tank 😊.
Run - embrace the suck and keep pushing . 👎🏾 . Physically, I felt fine, but mentally I was done. I’m constantly dealing with all kinds mental friction when I run. Such as limiting beliefs, fear and big-ole buckets of bullshit. This is my Everest ⛰.
Of course the time spent with my #trifamily made this an awesome++ experience. I always leave feeling fuller than when I arrived. Congratulations to everyone who showed up and pushed themselves yesterday.
A full race recap will be published on my blog in a few days.

Go time 😁! ...
Long course triathlon races are individual events 💯.
But, triathlon is a community of beautiful people who are constantly supporting others while pushing themselves to new levels.
I love both of the experiences.
Thanks to my #trifamily for the support and sharing the smiles and positive energy.
Rest up and let’s do the damn thang 💪🏾!
