I'd be lying if I said every day was easy!! The truth is that sometimes you just have to get up and DO IT..... suck it up and DO the hard things! On the drive out to the lake I knew this wouldn’t be a great swim. Left hip and shoulder just weren’t feeling great. I told myself you have 2 more of these long swims before race day in ✌🏻weeks. Just go out there and do your best. I’ve done the work. My body knows what it feels like to swim 2.4 miles. Its all muscle memory now as long as I don’t stop. This swim was H.A.R.D. but it’s done!! 1 more of these next Friday then it’s time to let all the training soak in. Advice I give both my kids when they are doubting their ability to do hard things. You’ve studied and prepared for what’s ahead now just trust when the times comes your mind and body will take over. The feeling of accomplishment will out weight the doubts you were experiencing. Every single one of us can find an excuse NOT to do it... without question... but it's when we DECIDE to go after it and believe in ourselves and all that we're capable of, CHANGE happens. #imboulder #decidecommit #14daycountdown #schwartzstrong #ironlife #mindovermatter #plantstrong #texas #enduranceracing #openwaterswim #plantpoweredathlete #workhardplayhard #wordsofwisdom #51willbeepic #youcandoittoo #tri365 #smalltowngirl #nevergiveup #plantstrongfoodie #loveyourselfday #fuelyourbody #badassisbeautiful #itstartswithwhy #whynotyou #heartforliving #nevergiveupattitude #hardworkpaysoff (at Boerne Lake) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx7yF-phcen/?igshid=cupc9kw5z49p
