As a triathlete (and I believe I speak for everyone) you always need a goal, something to work for. You always want to go further, faster and harder and when you’ve achieved your goal, you would always strive for something even more boundary pushing next time. It makes me think when the triathlete mind is going to stop and think: NO, THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE!
Training for Worlds meant spending a lot of time training. I remember my first session in the pool when I started with Lucie and the Trifactri group. I thought I was going to die – and I rated myself as a pretty good swimmer before Lucie’s training. Quickly my mind and body adapted to the high volumes of training and high pace. When complaining that I couldn’t do something, Lucie’s words would be: “Welcome to training.” At that moment I realised this should have been called “Ironmind” instead because when I adapted my mindset to my new conditions, everything got better and achievable.
