THIS IS SO OFFENSIVE
WE HAVE TWO CHOICES: play defense, and be apologetic; or, play offense and point out all the reasons we are right...
... and they are wrong!
RaceDay is every bit as much a mental battle as a physical one.
Let's go to war!
This is what being RaceDay Ready is all about.
We can't rip,
if we aren't offensive.
Here's what I mean.
The only thing we should be focusing on when we line up,
is all the work we put in to get to this point.
During the 10-Week RaceDay Ready Challenge we do a lot of activities that are easy to...
... skip
discount
overlook.
Do that at your own peril.
Ok, not peril...
... but, detriment
or loss.
How do I know y'all aren't doing it?
- You click the Off Track button on the Challenge emails
- I see it all the time during the Alliance calls.
Why aren't y'all doing it?
- Because it's hard, and
- I haven't stressed it enough or done a good enough job selling it to your minds.
For examples...
- Some of the benefits of journaling every day is to calm our minds, flesh out our thoughts, figure out how to make life, work, family and fitness work.
- By reading daily, I've added all kinds of tricks to my warchest on and off the bike.
- Cowboy Strong has made me a lot stronger, my bones and tendons and muscles.
- Stretching and massaging daily has put torn or sore muscles in the past.
- The Giant Calendar has my family and team onboard with what I want to accomplish and what I want to help them accomplish.
... I could go on, but I think you get the idea.
Yes, it's wonderful to toe the line knowing we rode X miles...
... it's a game changer to bombard our minds with the countless little things.
A wise man once said...
... By small and simple things are great things brought to pass...
... and we all wanna be passing vs being passed.
