Last post was all about the great big life lessons training for and completing my first olympic triathlon taught me. Maybe you’ve done a few or you’re here for the nitty gritty on ground tips and tricks while this one is for you! Triathlon training is something else let me tell you. It’s got so,...

I wasn’t sure until I got closer to the end of training if there would be big life changing lessons from my first olympic triathlon. I think that doing something big like this pushes you to do your growing at an accelerated rate. This time it revealed some strengths I didn’t know I had and... Continue Reading →
