Knowledge is important, but it’s not enough.
Plenty of triathletes have the same information as you but only the ones who take action reach or exceed their goals.
It’s easy for things to get off track.
It’s easy to know what to do and still not to do it.
That just seems to be the way life is.
I received an email recently from one of our Tri Swim Success members that I will never forget.
Diana E., a mother of three from Englewood, Colorado.
She said that she had struggled during the open-water swim, the most nerve-racking leg of triathlons before joining Tri Swim Success.
Her anxieties were heightened just thinking about the, chill of the water, hundreds of flopping arms & kicks, drowning, lagging behind and not making the cutoff times.
Nearly a year after Diana participated in her first local sprint triathlon, barely completing the swim portion on time, she registered for Ironman Florida.
“I remembered a year earlier watching the Ironman World Championship on NBC. The thought popped into my head, and my immediate reaction was I can’t, but I caught myself. Why not?”
“I knew that I needed any help I could get to improve my swim, my swimming technique, endurance, and learn to deal with my fears of open-water swim. I came across one of your swim technique videos online, and subscribed to your newsletter, and soon joined the Tri Swim Success swim training program.”
The feeling is unique for every triathlete that crosses the finish line.
For Diana, as she crossed the finish line at her first Ironman, the feeling was a combination of exhaustion, relief, and transformation.
She was an Ironman (Ironwoman!) Nobody could take the experience away from her. She put in the hard work, did the distance, and crossed the finish line.
“Taking those final steps toward the finish line with tears in my eyes because I never believed that I would do something like that. Yet there I was. Crossing the finish line meant that I was capable of anything I set my mind to do. I take that with me to every new opportunity.”
I told her that seeing the changes in her mindset was the greatest thanks I could receive.
Accomplishing something that seemed so out of reach forced her to fundamentally change her beliefs about who she was.
And to me, that is a huge part of the power of not going it alone: You become better than you ever believed possible.
