It's about the journey, isn't it?

What I learned this morning....

Had the swim coach make some comments on our swim stoke. Which is great. It's always positive to know that you can keep making improvements.Then I read a little quote which I thought was fitting to this morning.
"... I'm running with serenity and confidence and letting the improvements come to me."  Kara Goucher, America long-distance runner.
Yes, it does have to do with running specifically, but I felt that it could be applied to any part of sport. I mean, honestly, who am I kidding! Even as a recreational triathlete, we're never really satisfied with just doing alright. We always crave more, better, faster.
But I think there is a certain point where sometimes it doesn't hurt to shut that expectation off and just let the improvements come to you.
