The rise of the sun - The one certain part of the day... rise & embrace the first light, the first rays to energise your body & mind. That first ray of sun, your first choice and thought leading to the actions that will outline & set your path for the day. Rise with the day, brighten the light and make the most out of the day with what you can! . . . . . #bestversionofself & rontrol the controllable ?!

Tough day today, but would you expect anything less... it’s a race meant to hurt if that’s what you are after, pushing as much as you can / as much as your mind will allow you to go, the mind & body continue to fight against each other, in order to avoid pain... . . . How much pain can you tolerate, how much pain will you allow? How much can you let go and push it to the limit, what is your limit? That is the point to see how much we can get from our bodies and see what we can achieve ? Challenge we thrive on challenging ourselves, otherwise we can bored and stale ! So the limit in your life, one step at a time, test it and see what you really have inside... fight those fears and just have a go! . . . #desiredeterminationdiscipline #timetoplay #achieveyourimpossible (at Blackmores Sydney Running Festival) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnyZL9Ehi2K/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=14iefwmb56vly

As you approach race week, we all have the same thoughts & questions, we all respond different and have our own ways of tapering with how each of us respond. Listen to the body, freshen up, eat & sleep the best you can. Turn off the mind & trust what you have done in training, too late now to change anything. Have faith and avoid shocking the body too much! No last minute, fear training sessions that you think you have to for the mind ! . . , . It’s time now to shine, plan for everything, adapt on the day & just do your best ! Hydrate & Fuel to how you have trained and remember it’s not training ! Your Racing !!!! . . . #timetoplay #GNW #50miler (at The Basin Camping Area) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnQ6IFyh3wT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1exs8t9ylfh1e

To improve you must practice. To gain strengths you have to practice. To develop new skills you must practice and challenge. Set outside the comfort zone and go through the tough times. It’s a process & something that takes work. If you didn’t have to work for it you wouldn’t appreciate the value of success that was gained from the practice and sacrifices made from all the hard work. Embrace the path and journey. The result will follow . . . #timetoplay #bestversionofself #desiredeterminationdiscipline https://www.instagram.com/p/Bm5lrbhBfh0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=efhwon8oksum
