Hard Runs Make for Perfect Training
Sometimes running is hard, but ultimately that makes for perfect training. We train so we can be prepared for the adversities that come during the race.
Confidence is the After Effect of Taking Action
I can plan and prepare for beforehand, but even when I don’t prepare quite as well as I could have, I can still go out there and try. Through trying I can learn how to improve and then show up and try again if I want to. Perfectionism has no place here. Only showing up and trying. One race does not have to be a finite outcome of training and preparing. There are many lessons and skills learned through the journey. Confidence is the result of action, you will rarely feel it first.
