Tips on how to question your life choices.
Signing up for a challenging race that is going to require hours upon hours of training, time away from family and friends, constant fatigue, endless money spent on gels and electrolytes, gastrointestinal issues, soreness everywhere, and laundry that never ends, is mentally and physically challenging, especially if you don’t have the shoulder range of motion and fine motor skills to sign up.
This video breaks down the steps on how to sign up for a race that is guaranteed to make you question your life choices.
1. You want to have good posture. Your neck and shoulders are going to feel like crap from spending hours in the aero position on your bike, so make sure you’re taking care of them when signing up. Save the misery for later.
2. Shoulder internal rotation is key to reach for your wallet. If you don’t have any money, then your wallet may be lighter which will make it easier for you.
3. Engage the tricep to ensure you push the enter button, well and sign up. You need to commit to questioning your life choices.
4. Covering your eyes and tilting your head is the last exercise you need to do. It cements the regret, which will make it much easier for you to question your life choices down the road.
I hope this helps!
Joking aside, when I signed up for my first triathlon which was 2023 Texas, my stomach did drop and was quickly followed by a “WTF DID I JUST DO?”😅
Now, I’m onto my first half distance at La Quinta and will be training for my 6th full distance In Jacksonville.
