HUNGRY!

I was angry. Angry for getting hurt and being out of commission due to someone else's negligence. I was hurt because headaches hurt and I had goals, big goals. But being angry and upset made me hurt more, so I learned to let it all go.

Bye bye anger.
Bye bye goals.
Bye bye fear.

Hello contentment.
Hello happiness.
Hello hunger.

Nearly 8 weeks post concussion, I am happy and hungry. I'm hungpy! I'm so glad to be back in training full force and having been away from training and racing made me very hungry. I thirst for power, I hunger for strength, and I greed for speed. I've been approaching every training session with extra fire that was just embers not too long ago.

The hunger has kicked in right on time as I enter into the final peak training block before the 70.3 World Championships. The next three weeks are going to be rough as I push my body and mind to be the best that they can be, but I am ready for it.

I am very hungry. Hungry for championship cookies.

Can you hear me roar?
