Kirstin begins this week's episode with an update on her training these past couple of weeks. With the weather starting to improve, it makes everything a bit more enjoyable being able to be outside. Kirstin reflects on her journey a bit over the past year and the improvements and differences she has seen giving herself a full year to get ready for her first Ironman. The main topic of this episode we learn about managing expectations going into your first race ever or first race back. It's easy to get wrapped up in wanting to achieve big goals and dreams. Sometimes we need to take a step back and give ourselves time to enjoy, have fun, and importantly, have a good experience. Especially since many of us are going back to races for the first time since the pandemic started.  Kirstin gives some great tips for managing your mindset and expectations when races begin to happen this year.
