Struggling with motivation? You're not alone. If we were boxers this would be known as the Summer of Body Blows. Cancellations, adaptations, and heat have made it tough and today we acknowledge that while trying to talk ourselves into a positive space. Hopefully you can find some motivation, and get a better grip one how this bizarre little stretch of life can help us become better athletes and people.  Topics: You are not alone with struggles Lack of motivation is normal right now  Your number 1 goal right now should be . . .  Injuries, setbacks, daily trouble shooting The hardest week of a training year  Everyone has a plan till they get hit in the mouth The year of body shots  Breaking down your objectives  Vulnerability is a sign of strength Open up and let it out  I’m not gonna sign up until I can do this . . .  The three sport “comeback dilemma”  The hidden fitness we don’t lose  Fitness all adds up Seeing huge gains down the road  The Law of 7’s  Train so you can train how you need to train  Is taking breaks a way to fast-forward? Breaking out of your groove  Challenge yourself within the consistency  Triathlon depression -  Healthy relationships and camaraderie with triathlon  Be part of a process  No one has your life - “disrespectful to yourself” ---------------- The C26 Online Hub is now open to the public!
