A little reminder I’ve needed lately
Sometimes the plan changes.
A few weeks ago, I had a pretty clear idea of what the next few months of training were going to look like.
Then I found out I’d been running and racing with a bulged disk for 6 months.
Far from ideal.
I love training. I love racing. I love having goals to work towards.
So being told I need to change things up wasn’t exactly part of the plan.
But if there’s one thing training and racing has taught me over the years, it’s that setbacks are inevitable.
Not every season goes to plan.
Not every race gives you the
result you wanted.
And not every challenge can be solved by simply working harder.
So right now, instead of focusing on what I can’t do, I’m focusing on what I can.
Adapting where I need to.
Being patient.
Continuing to move forward, even if that looks a little different to what I had planned.
Sometimes it’s about taking a step back, making the changes you need to make and staying consistent with what you can do
