Climbing today was good. I bouldered I climbed lead. Scary. I hate falling. I did it though and am slowly getting stronger. So far 20 minutes of running Easy arms Climb for hours Later I’ll run more (at InSPIRE Rock Indoor Climbing & Team Building Center) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1E-ADSH7a0/?igshid=yhf0ibj0xait
Super easy arms and fairly quick. Did 20 minutes of easy running to get warm for climbing. Feel great. Ready to get back into it. (at Houston, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1EX_KOH0wC/?igshid=9xb9af7jrysp

Interesting chocolate oat cookies. They are apart of the breakfast cookie trend. It’s pretty good, not my favorite but they are kinda healthy. They are pretty good. (at Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0tUDX2nxeF/?igshid=1bi2eqho8thm0
1st month of Ironman training diary in the books, the goal is to keep getting stronger. (at Shenandoah, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0o1gNXHdxE/?igshid=x9tzxgnd6s5u
Swimming today!! A half mile. 882 yards, so a little more but it felt great. I got my technique fixed up a bit more and enjoyed it until my eyes felt like they are on fire. https://www.instagram.com/p/B0g7dWmHzP4/?igshid=kgj1mm2qka42
Yah I ran also today to get ready for my half marathon. It said tempo run so a faster run at a mid distance. Today it told me to run a quick .75 mile and so I did with no problems. I dis some cross training with climbing for three hours and then yoga. It was good. Today in total I biked 3 miles, swam .435, ran .75, climbed for 3 hours, and did yoga.. https://www.instagram.com/p/B0Upzk0l63tzhmTKQcqcjaPIAunbmuVtBcs3zQ0/?igshid=16beohqguodnd
Now that I think about my bonk I realized I hadn’t eaten anything but a granola bar today and it’s 2:20 and my watch says I swam 700 meters or 765 yards or .435 miles! I also happened to have biked 3 miles so now I’m going to eat because well lunch in good. This spicy chicken recipe is awesome! https://www.instagram.com/p/B0T6TE1DGGzrChrhrk819ZtBPwswoAc5qbgR6I0/?igshid=nsmtyiw5l6uo
Today was a shorter swim than I had hoped I would do, but I did what I could and pushed for a bit more. 700 meters were done, and it was exhausting. To swim around little kids that get in my lane makes me laugh so I’m tired. I biked like 3 miles mostly just to get to the pool lol, but it’s time for me to own the parts of my training that suck. Today I did .435 mile swim. I didn’t do it well but I got it done. The random 18 minute lap, I probably forgot to pause when I had to get out for safety break. Who knows?

recover from ‘burnout’ in five steps
1. reward yourself for working so hard. take a long bath with your favourite bath bomb, take time to cook your favourite meal, paint your nails. recognise that you worked hard and it was tough and that you deserve time for yourself
2. catch up on sleep. nothing makes studying harder than being exhausted. clear your schedule and have a lie in. even if you don’t sleep late, stay in bed and enjoy a guilt-free lazy morning
3. do something fun. invite your friends over for a movie night, take your dog for a walk. remind yourself that there is more to life than textbooks and notes
4. make a plan. start getting ready to get back into study mode. make a todo list, a study schedule, and a list of your deadlines
5. organise your space. declutter your desk so you have a clean space to be productive in. tidy desk, tidy mind
start again.
don’t let a bad grade make you think any less of yourself.
one of my lecturers printed us a step-by-step guide to writing an essay for an assignment we had. i decided to type it up and share it with you guys. i think for the most part it is really useful and a super simple way to break down your essay. hope this helps :~)
Okay, so you’ve been called smart all your life. As a kid, you were one of the smartest in your class. Maybe you could read at a much higher level than your peers, or you could fly through multiplication drills like they were nothing. Then, you get to high school and suddenly you’re surrounded by lots of people who were ‘gifted kids’. None of what made you ‘special’ seems all that important now. Your work is actually challenging, and it’s actually requiring effort.
If you’re experiencing this, just know that so many students have gone through the same thing. Maybe it happens in high school, maybe college. But a lot of us who were considered gifted as kids suddenly run into this and it challenges our entire identity. It can be paralyzing, but it’s 100% possible to overcome it and succeed! I’ve compiled a few tips for ex-gifted kids dealing with impostor syndrome and self-doubt. I’m not a therapist, psychologist, or any sort of education expert. I’m just speaking to my own experiences, and I welcome any input from others who have insight into this as well!
1. Understand that working hard does not mean you aren’t intelligent. If something doesn’t come naturally to you, that’s not a reason to give up. Believing that people can do things “just because they were born with a talent for it” is only going to hurt you. It’s not true! People may have natural aptitudes for things, but hard work is involved even for the smartest or most talented people. You are capable of learning anything, and you don’t have to be “good at it” right away to do so.
2. Comparison will kill you. You are your only competition. Focusing on how you rank with other students, and comparing yourself to your classmates is going to exhaust you. By focusing on others, you can’t put your full energy into focusing on your work and yourself. You belong. Even if you struggle with your work, you belong. Focus on your own self-improvement and doing your best.
3. Don’t focus on the goal, focus on your current actions. If you’re always thinking about the future, and about whether you’ll get into that school or that program or win that award or get that scholarship, you’re not using that time to get work done. Don’t worry about college applications, just do your homework. Focus on what you are doing now to reach your goals so you can apply to schools with confidence later.
4. Your grades may not reflect intelligence, but they do reflect work ethic. Don’t let others convince you that grades mean nothing. They sure as hell mean a lot to colleges, and thinking that you should “reject the current education system” is not going to harm anyone but yourself. If you don’t feel like you’re learning anything in your high school classes, that’s all the more reason to want to get into a university that will challenge you. If you put effort into your work, it will not let you down. Your hard work will be reflected on your transcript. Don’t lose focus.
5. Talk to someone. Let people know if you’re struggling. It can be hard to feel like you aren’t allowed to identify as “smart” or to feel pressure to constantly compete and improve. I went to a highly competitive high school that pushed kids to cope in dangerous ways. This is not healthy and not okay. If you’re feeling overwhelmed you need to find healthy coping mechanisms. Speak with someone you trust and don’t let yourself spiral. Don’t try to self medicate. Your well being is always more important than your grades. Period.
6. Enjoy yourself. School may seem like hell, and you may feel like it will never end and you’ll always be stressed and worried. But high school is only four years, and you can do things during that time that you probably won’t ever again. Take advantage of things that seem fun, even if people think they’re nerdy or weird. Try and remind yourself that you’re lucky to have your education and you have the power to do great things with it. Don’t lose sight of your own ability and your bright future!
