The sport of triathlon can definitely keep you very busy! Between work, workouts, family, etc., often it is difficult to actually relax. Many triathletes I know are “type A” personalities, and feel like they constantly have to be in action. This can lead to burnout and injury. It is very important to take 15 minutes a day to chill out and relax. Find a comfortable place, do some deep breathing, and think about what you are grateful for.

Relaxation will pay off in life in general, and will help you achieve your triathlon goals!
