Training Tip of the Week: DREAM BIG!!!

Have you ever heard someone say “I’d like to be really good…but not too good.”  No.  Why?  Because, we don’t dream about being mediocre, we dream about being amazing, awesome, extraordinary.  So, why shouldn’t we all dream to be Olympians?  We all can take that dream, work hard, listen to our coaches, and try to achieve something that is amazing, awesome, and extraordinary.  Very few of us may actually achieve this dream, but who cares?  Life is a journey, about the roads we travel, not necessarily about the destination.  So let’s dream big things.  What are your big dreams?

As we reflect on what we are thankful for, it’s difficult to not be overwhelmed by how amazing a team we have.  Words can’t really describe how much we value you all.  Have wonderful Thanksgiving; hope you and your family travels safely and enjoys this joyous holiday!
