I’m a huge fan of stoicism. Listening or reading a stoicism meditation daily keeps me grounded in my values. Today, I thought to share this one with you all as it truly does reflect the ideas we champion at Athletica.
I would change the “put your ass in the chair” to “get your ass off the chair” in our case, but ya’ll get the point 
What is your favourite life philosophy?
What is your small win the past few days?

Hi @Marjaana, I was thinking about this podcast on Saturday during my 60-mile gravel race. It was a tough day, and I was not feeling good. It was one of those long races where you’re wondering if there’s a shortcut to get back to the course and end the race early.
I got into a good working group of riders and was plugging along, and at some point, I didn’t have enough power to stay with the group. I was fueled so that wasn’t the issue.
I decided at that moment to just enjoy the rest of the day on the bike, take in the beautiful scenery, and take the win of simply finishing. Focusing on the little win of simply being able to finish the challenging race was enough.
Ah, @SimpleEnduranceCoach we all have had those races. So glad you were able to find the win in your challenging day.
