Past➡️Present . . You can’t change the past

Past➡️Present
.

You can’t change the past but what you do in the present can change the future. I have a bit of undiagnosed seasonal depression. I find that it makes me act in ways that I wouldn’t normally just because of uncontrolled circumstances. I’ve learned to over come these barriers by making small changes seasonally. Given the current state of the present it’s easy to get wrapped up in the things out of our control, making our actions emotion based, which just create noise. I’m speaking from experience that emotion won’t make half the change that education can. If you’re passionate about something, learn it and teach it to create change.

First open water swim of the year and in the new wetsuit. Got 43 minutes in at pike lake for the first swim since March. 😊💪🏊‍♂️

It was on this day last year at the Stillwater half marathon that I reached a PR.
1:39:00 (7:34 min/mi)
47/464 Overall and 13/50 for 20-29 age group

I’m still proud of these stats especially considering it was only my second racing season. It was also this race I unlocked how hard I could run and sustain a faster pace than my mind thought possible. However, there is a negative side to this race too. I remember finishing this race and just being sick from low blood sugar and my knee just sore. I recovered from runners knee symptoms just in time for Grandma’s marathon.

Now in the third training season and I’m in the same spot with an inflammation injury just above my ankle. There’s a reason that running has some of the highest injury rates and I believe it’s overtraining. I cannot stress the importance of cross training (swimming and biking) as well as strength training. As we move into summer I highly encourage looking into your running volume and explore areas of weakness. I feel running goes from a peak to valley in an instant. My advice and future plan is instead of pushing that peak further and faster, step back and assess what else you need in your training to prevent stressing the body too much in one activity even if it is your sport. I’ll be adding short distance back in the next couple weeks with more disciplined training. Lastly, shout out to the camera guy for capturing this mid air shot 🔥

“Go one more” - @nickbarefitness This is the motto he lives by and it is so powerful. In his book 25 Hours A Day he gives life lessons on business, fitness and “embracing the suck.” He gives examples of personal challenges to produce suck and be uncomfortable in order to pave a path to success. It’s a quick read that has you inspired to work harder and take the path of most resistance to be better in life as well as strive for achieving more in one day of life.

Favorite quote “There is one thing those who fail and quit, who don’t break that switch, all seem to have in common: they lack a great vision.”

DIG DEEP!
.
.
I’ve been having to really dig into the deep layers of motivation to drive my workouts. Every week I’ve been increasing my volume which was my goal. I started at 20 to 30 minutes then 40 to an hour. I find my focus lingers into what I would be doing in the gym. Lately, I’ve been really missing cable work but have been substituting for bands. What I’ve realized is just keep working to maintain and you’ll be ready for action when the time comes to get back. Being discourage will lead to excuses, use what you can’t do as a way to take action for what you can and that will prepare you for a successful come back to anything.
