Many athletes know the thrill of a great session — the effortless feeling, the sense of invincibility, or hitting a flow state. However, equally familiar are those tough days when nothing seems to go right. It’s easy to feel discouraged when training sessions fall short or races end in disappointment. Yet, these challenging experiences can be more beneficial than the easy, "good" days. In today's episode, we talk about why embracing the tough moments in your training journey can lead to greater growth and success.
