There is one distinct moment in triathlon that can give you a gripping sense of panic. No matter your stamina, your training or your experience, it can instantly suck the energy from your legs, the willpower from your mind and the deep desire to finish from your heart.

If you encounter this moment unprepared, your race might be over. But if you are armed with the ultimate answer, you might quickly launch yourself towards your greatest race ever.
This moment is that fleeting thought that sweeps into your brain during the stiffest wind on the bike or the steepest hill on the run, when you are mentally and physically drained - the precise time when you mentally scream at yourself: Why the hell am I doing this?

Go ahead, ask yourself that question right now. Sure, your response may not be as raw as when you’re in the heart of the race, but the simple mental drill of questioning yourself will give you an answer now that you can later use as a powerful motivation for training and racing.

Entering the next event motivates us. Team Audi Racing Squad will be back in action after having enjoyed a rather warm yet successful Xterra in grabouw.
