Knowing exactly how many strokes to the wall, kicks off the wall, when to breathe, visualizing with stopwatches in our hands and nailing our swim to the hundreth of a second.<br /><br />It really works! And it worked for you....you rocked ST George! So proud of you girl!Teresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10942389098358890280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4128699363143101926.post-71756850224328507452012-05-10T09:43:15.080-07:002012-05-10T09:43:15.080-07:00Great to meet you too!

I think I was just so shocked when someone I don’t know found my blog that I incorrectly answered your question about having my email available on my homepage. Here it is: cathleen.knutson@gmail.com I also failed to ask about your race, but it looks like we were close to sharing the podium together, so way to stay tough on such a difficult day. No Rev3 for me this year. I think I might do Troika in Spokane this August; otherwise it’s nothing crazy until Ironman Wisconsin. Keep in touch with any PNW questions. -ckCathleen Knutsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03635816369830548255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4128699363143101926.post-73938669868588744552012-05-10T09:15:43.876-07:002012-05-10T09:15:43.876-07:00Cathleen, So nice to meet you on Sunday morning at...Cathleen, So nice to meet you on Sunday morning at the awards ceremony in St. George. Hopefully, I'll be able to move back to the Great Northwest soon. Not sure how to find your email address on your blog, but I'll reach out to you this way if I need any Seattle triathlon insight. Any chance you are doing Rev3 Portland in July? I'm thinking of heading over to my favorite city for that one! Best to you and congrats on a great race! --KendraAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4128699363143101926.post-48919445962842674632012-05-03T00:23:44.398-07:002012-05-03T00:23:44.398-07:00Good luck!

I'm also a huge fan of visualization, I used to do it naturally in high school then I learned more about it in my sports psyche class in college and became better at it. I've been practicing it all this week to calm my nerves for the weekend. Sending you lots of positive vibes for the weekend!Meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10758197285213106047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4128699363143101926.post-111404112628081792012-05-02T06:06:39.731-07:002012-05-02T06:06:39.731-07:00I too will be following you and sending fast thoug...I too will be following you and sending fast thoughts on Saturday!! This is your race to own, chica! I too spend a lot of time visualizing and prepping the mental game. Definitely can be a game changer in terms of confidence on the course.
