Be wary of anyone who reduces the world, people, or ideas into good and evil.
It's intellectual laziness.
And it's used to create outrage and us vs. them attitudes that prevent true understanding & growth.
This applies to just about every field.
A friend recently did a 5K after a long hiatus & said it was good to be back. Reminded me those moments that allow us to remember what we love about #running help get us through the days we wonder why we we do it! Can be applied to anything - training, work, relationships.
The goal of a great discussion isn't to land on the same page. It’s to explore different views.
Nods and smiles stroke your ego and close your mind. Thoughtful questions stoke your curiosity and stretch your thinking.
Consensus makes you comfortable. Dissent makes you smarter.
Me, trying to convince myself at #IMWC that I wasn’t dying! Got it done on a very challenging course and day! The volunteers in St George were absolutely incredible. Best I’ve experienced in all my races. Kudos to them!!!
Doing hard things in my personal life makes challenges at work seem more manageable. #IMWC is definitely one of those!! Time to gain some more life perspective in those long hours out on the course!

@des_linden@brooksrunning@des_linden I have to ask if you were out running down by the Salt River in Mesa on Sunday? Rode past a couple of runners while on my bike and said to my husband, “I swear that’s Des Linden”!
Baby steps. My running just hasn’t been the same since I had Covid almost exactly a year ago. I didn’t have a great result @RunRocknRoll AZ but a step in the right direction.
Visiting one of our amazing @BIG_SEXYRacing sponsors at Ironman village yesterday. Between my husband and I we have 8 @ROTOR_bike power meters and they are the most predictable pieces of equipment we have!
