I've been preparing my body for this for a while. This week, I'm preparing my mind. As coaches we sometimes slip in our mindset. We don't get the constant recognition that we give our class members for doing well in a WOD or getting a PR on a max lift, so it's easier for us to doubt ourselves and lack in the self confidence department. I'm one of those people that likes to win, so to prepare my mind I've been telling myself that just by signing up, I'm #WINNING!!!!! And it's SO true, not just in CrossFit competitions, but in every day life as well.
When you reach for something, whether or not you accomplish it doesn't matter...TRYING, even if you fail the first, second or tenth time is #WINNING. So, while I'm praying to the CrossFit Gods that there are no squat snatches or thrusters in the WODs Saturday, I'll be telling myself, "Don't sweat it. You trained for this. You have done this before. You will do your very best. You signed up when others didn't. You've already won!"
