Are you throwing in the towel right before a big breakthrough? Today, we cast based on a quote, “The magic you’re looking gor is in the work you’re avoiding.” We look at the concept behind patient training, and what breakthroughs look like. We talk about race expectations and how they should rarely, if ever, be the main goal. This is about enjoying the process and being in the moment with training and your life. What do you do when no one is looking?

Stay tuned after the main podcast for an interview with one of our awesome coaches, Nikki Leo.
