Definitely helps to keep me focused and accountable. Yesterday is a perfect example. Planned to get in an open water swim at sunrise yesterday. Saturday night I was tired and I knew the air temp was gonna be a little cool in the morning. However, I’ve got a race coming up two weeks from yesterday. So I sucked it up and got my butt out there. Was really glad I did. Air was cool, but the water felt amazing. Was a great swim
