RACING WITH BLINDERS
WHAT IS HACK FROM OTHER SPORTS we could use to increase our focus? There are probably a million of 'em. Some make sense metaphorically...
... others in real life.
Like this.
Ever watch the Kentucky Derby,
or any horse race?
The beasts have blinders on.
Covers on the bridle...
- can't see competition
- no point in looking around
- hyper-focused on the finish line
... to keep the horse focused.
Which means this, for us, is symbolic.
When we lock in on...
- an A race
- a goal
- a PR
... we can improve our odds of success.
Racing with blinders on.

Speaking of blinders, I've been pretty loyal to my TrainerRoad experiment and honestly very disappointed as I watch my fitness continue to fall.
Mostly likely gonna pull the plug on it.
