Challenge PSA--Work your Weakness

I think we all tend to work our strengths pretty well but put off those things that hurt or things we're not very good at.  By addressing our weaknesses, we can fix problems, learn new things and gain confidence by learning to be outside of our comfort zone--a very helpful thing in triathlon.

The challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to spend some period of time addressing your weakness each day.  I'm kind of imagining this challenge as an ongoing thing that people use when they feel they need it.  You can join any time you have something you want to focus on.  We will start mini sessions every two weeks (if you want to start mid-session, totally g2g, just jump in, if you want to work that thing longer, you can always declare it as your weakness for the next two weeks).

I have picked two week intervals because during the last challenge I started, I noticed that people were really strong for about two weeks, and then many of us (myself included) started to miss days here and there.  "They" say it takes two weeks to develop a habit, so I feel like this is a good place to start.  Obviously you can keep working the same thing for more than two weeks/one mini session if you want.

For those of you who are new to BT or maybe have been on BT for a while but haven't done a challenge, I highly encourage you to try one.  They are a GREAT way to get to know your fellow BTers, and you can learn a ton from the group. A number of people who did the 100d x 10 min = 1 strong core challenge will be in this group, and it is an AWESOME group of very fun, kind, supportive folks.  Btw, the alternative name for our challenge was put forth by Salty to Mike, two core challenge participants;)

First session will start Saturday, October 12th. 

The Challenge is up in the Challenge Forum :)
