When it’s SO hot, that you actually choose swim. 😂 Also, which one of these is not like the other? 🙋🏻♀️ . . . You know, there was a time (not very long ago) where if I walked up to the pool and they said “only lane 1 in the 50M is available”, I would have jumped back in the car and gone home. I’d scrap the whole thing thanks to fear. . 1- uh, walk up to a deck of a few dozen competitive swimmers with my mom bag and Incredibles towel? NO. 2- 50M. Without stopping in one direction?! NO. 3- With the sprinkling aerators falling on me? That’s like asking to be drowned. NO. . Today, my response was: “ok!” . Who. Am. I?!🤪 . I’ll tell you. . I’m someone who day by day pushes against that fear and tries some-thing, any, thing that once scared me frozen until it doesn’t. That’s a new me, by the way. . My kids were talking this morning and egging each other about who’s faster at...better stroke, than the other after swim practice. I stopped them and explained that their only competition is who they were yesterday. . I did not learn how to swim “proper” until 7 years ago. I have plenty of content to go back on to show how green I was to swimming and how scared out of my mind I was to even attempt getting across the pool without a snorkel. . Like my kids, who were terrified of putting their face in the water last year and are swimming in meets this year, it’s a process. They get it from their mama I suppose but their mama knows that the sooner they push against fear, the sooner they’ll conquer it. They shouldn’t wait 40+ years to know what they’re capable of. . Sky’s the limit. . . . #workoutwednesday #theyaremywhy #dohardthings #doepicshit #momlife #swimday #poolday #triathlontraining #tritraining #fitover40 #fitfluential #houstonlatinabloggers #fitnesslifestyle #fitnessblogger #dowhatscaresyou #poolday #summerfitness #summertraining #roadtoironman #fitnessgoals #lifegoals #youagainstyou #thisis45 #momof4 #momboss #discoverunder10k (at Spring Valley, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/fullhouseofroyals/p/By6ryG0gBdI/?igshid=5m61n9bbrscw
