Subject: RE: Balanced or Unbalanced? I'm terribly unbalanced.
Swim: mediocre if wetsuit-legal, crap-tastic if no wetsuit
Bike: I'm even unbalanced within the one event -- I never get passed going uphill, but everybody passes me going downhill
Run: good, but consistently late to the party
Actually, the swim isn't my weakest event. I generally do a little worse on T1, as I was never very good at getting my kit off. And then I struggle to find my glasses. There's a good reason why I have targeted low-skill sports.
I used to focus on my weaknesses, but now I focus on what I enjoy. And celebrate the weaknesses. As an MOP swimmer I get to experience pack swimming in way that many of the fast swimmers will rarely enjoy. |
