MEDALS & METAS: Congratulations to Chris on completing his second triathlon Lake Lanier sprint. Here’s his race recap:⁣

“𝐀𝐬 𝐢𝐭 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐋𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐋𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐞𝐫 𝐓𝐫𝐢 𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐞, 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐦𝐞, 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦𝐞 𝐈 𝐭𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐞𝐞𝐤𝐞𝐧𝐝 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 “𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐮𝐩”. ⁣

I was bruised, battered, and beaten from a day-long CrossFit competition that I competed in the day prior (bad planning on my part). I certainly did not have the energy or motivation to wake up that Sunday and drag myself to a cold and early race start. 𝐁𝐮𝐭 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐬 𝐢𝐭’𝐬 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐮𝐩 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐬𝐞𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡. ⁣

I didn’t compete to the best of my ability, but learning acceptance and tolerance is another aspect of this sport that I’m embracing. 𝐈𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐬𝐚𝐢𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐭𝐰𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐜. 𝐓𝐨 𝐦𝐞, 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐬 𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐣𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐲, 𝐟𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐦𝐲𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐛𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐥𝐲 𝐟𝐨𝐜𝐮𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐝-𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐬, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐠𝐫𝐨𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐬.⁣
⁣
The Lake Lanier Tri race did all of these things for me. I’m glad I did. Now onto the next fun adventure!⁣
