Last week, my son, Caleb and I competed in our very first SwimRun competition, in which we ran nearly 16 miles up and down the hills and trails of Mackinac Island and swam over 3 miles in the cold water of Lake Huron. It was an awesome experience that neither of us will ever forget.
As with any goal, along the way, we learned lots about ourselves, our capacity, and our brains and we think the lessons we learned will help you as you create the goals and dreams you have in your own life.
This was our second big endurance event and we learned a lot through training and preparing for the event, as well as competing in the event itself, and on today’s podcast episode, we’re breaking down the biggest lessons and takeaways that we each received as we worked toward our goal
