The death of my younger brother two years ago. Realise you must grab the moment now as you don't know what is around the corner. This motivated me through my ironman training. Obstacle - The worry that I'm not good enough. - Kay Teacher’s assistant, mother, amateur triathlete

Slide 21

Slide 21 text

It's a bit like fear of failure. I'd describe it as the fear of putting it all out there and that not being enough. I think that causes us to keep something back so we can say (if even only to ourselves), "well, if I’d really tried/cared/put a bit more effort in, I could have done that" lack of clarity/short attention span/low boredom threshold - I get sidetracked - Alisdair Amateur triathlete
