Day 3 to Becoming the Best Me

Written by Rose Wetzel on . Posted in Mindset, Obstacle Course Racing, Running

According to some quick search engine research, it seems to take either 21 or 66 days to form a habit, so we’re either 1/7th or 1/22nd of the way there – either way, congrats!

Morning stats

Yang/firing up

  • stood on one leg while brushing teeth to activate glutes
  • cold shower (technically three of them today because the pool shower had no hot water for my pre-and post-swim rinse)
  • listened to this motivational speech by Denzel Washington
  • 90 minute bike ride
  • 20 minute swim (this took more effort than the bike ride!)

Yin/cooling down

  • no social media until 9am
  • 12 minute stretch/yoga
  • (forgot to meditate in the morning)
  • morning mantra: “My body is rested and my mind is clear.”
“It is our choices, Harry, that show us what we truly are, far more than our abilities.” – J.K.Rowling

Evening update

  • listened to 15 minutes of the meditation app “Simply Being”
  • 5 minute foam roll
  • 5 minute Hypervolt
  • 30 minute core/grip/shoulder workout

Feeling grateful Taylor and I got to meet up with a friend, her four year-old, and her newborn.
