Well finally the inevitable happened...I fell from the bike!
Fortunately it happened before the triathlon and not while in the race, but as one of my friends predicted it, now I feel more confident and I think my performance in the race will be better.
It is commonly known that athletes of any kind are subject to a countless ideas or mental blockage which might affect his or her performance, and I have plenty of them...
I believe that if I go faster in my bike, I'll fall and that I'd be terribly injured.
I believe that if I keep running at the same speed, when I am running below the 6:00 threshold, I'd burn my fuel and I will not be able to complete the race.
I believe that I will never be able to run a 35K as training, for preparation of a marathon.
I believe I will never qualify to Boston.
But since I have trained, suffered, bled, breathed and lived triathlon for many maaaaaany weeks now, my only belief for this week will be that I will gloriously finish and enjoy the race. I swear I will have an Olympic Triathlon medal in my dashboard by the end of the week…
I have done my part and gave up many things to do this; therefore losing confidence at this point seems a very stupid idea...
Only 6 days to go...next Saturday!!! Unbelievable!!!!
