THE 5 KINDS OF RACERS

THERE ARE 5 KINDS OF RACERS in the world. No matter where we go, we're sure to find all five. Could be on a start line... ... could be on a lonely trail. Here they are: Motivated by the journey, this first group focuses on the racecraft, learns all they can. Then cracks off a blistering time up a mountain, without waiting for someone to organize a race. The top of the podium is the domain of fierce competitors, against their PRs and everyone else. They figure out what it takes to win a race, and do it. Those on the dirt podium - 4th and 5th and top 10s - are like the top of the podium, but the resistance is real. They're motivated, but internal limits hold them back. The rest of the lead group, is willing to expend effort, but not too much. They are fast enough to be there at the end, but don't see themselves as contenders. The pack fodder, is cool with just being present and getting by with the least possible effort. I've been all of these racers, at one time or another. It's not permanent. And, that's the cool part... ... we can always change. --- 162.89 hrs sleep1 RaceDay Ready Circuit20 minutes recovery 90 minutes reading + Journaling 96
