I learned how to foster more mental toughness. I learned how to set better goals. I learned how to periodize my training when mountaineering goals and gym phases/goals don’t always align. The last week of the challenge I returned from Mt. Whitney and got my first invitation to the Age Group Quarterfinals. This has been a great 12 weeks!
Read MoreI joined the performance challenge to enhance my running goals. Despite initial challenges and international travel, I learned to be flexible with nutrition. This journey taught me adaptability, how to have a positive mindset, and the importance of various metrics in measuring progress.

I truly believe everyone should invest in a year of tracking to figure out what works for them. I’ve hit PRs this last year that I didn’t think were possible, took 1st place in a competition, made it the furthest I have in the CF Open, and over the weekend ran 8 miles.
