How to Keep Up the Pace

The triathlon is a grueling and intense test of human endurance. To be a successful triathlete, you not only have to train hard, but you have to train smart. A training regimen really pays off when race day challenges threaten to knock you off your pace – and until race day a triathlete never knows what kind of elements he will compete in and need to deal with.

Just like those competitors on race day, the stress of business threatens to knock us off our pace despite our training. When we know in advance how we react under personal stress we can minimize its impact on our performance over the long haul.

Learn to recognize and manage your stress points. It will pay big dividends in your ability to sustain your pace and demonstrate endurance for the long term.
