Making the most of a stress fracture
Quote | Reply
Hey everyone,

I know we all struggle with injuries, so I wanted to share my most recent video, in hopes that it helps with perspective. We've got a rad sport in that there is almost no injury, circumstance, etc that can keep us from doing at least one part of it. Focusing on what you can do versus what you can't.

Hope you dig the shots, hope you dig the message. Hit me up with any questions. My Dad helped me film this one, and he's getting pretty handy with the drone!




Backstory: I raced Alcatraz with some pain in my foot, and fully fractured it on the run to T2. It's my favorite race of the year, so it massively sucks, but no use dwelling on it. Fix the problem, make sure it stays fixed, enjoy life in the meantime.

Awesome! Jealous of the venue, not of the injury. Recover smart and get better soon.

Yeah! I think it would be sweet to do a little series just on the awesome open water spots around here. We've got at least one that's even better.

Thank you. That means a lot to me.. I got into the sport because of the positive energy and helpfulness I felt during my early years as a kid in local races. I found a family and I feel a pretty significant push to give back as much of that energy that I got early on. I'm pretty excited about where things are going with Transition Four, and what we'll be able to accomplish in that vein!
