Breaking new ground

​Kia Ora team,

Summer has arrived in true fashion here in New Zealand turning on some record breaking temperatures and pearler days for this time of the year and no, rotary hoeing and leveling my back section is not the only ground I have been breaking lately.

The weather has made it that much easier to throw on the running shoes and head out the door as my training continues and I stick to my plan and stay consistent.

I have found one of the key components to breaking new ground has been embracing the suck and pushing myself in the key sessions when I know it is going to be tough.

Too often when we are getting back into the groove of things or getting started, we can let self doubt talk us out of giving it our all when there are key sessions given to us, that not only build our fitness and strength but most importantly, improve our mental strength in preparation for races.

The key is to not overthink it and break a session down to an effort and then when it is a hard effort break it down again to 30 seconds or more depending on the length. Another tip for say on the bike trainer is to focus on a constant, for me, if I am trying to hit a certain power, once I get to that I then focus on my cadence as it is a smaller number and something that doesn’t spike and easier to hold making you feel like you are in control.

That’s all for this week team, until next time, go on and break new ground 💪🏽
