“I’ve always wanted to do a 10K swim, but…”

“I’m too old to start now.” “I don’t have the time to train for something that big.” “I’m not fast enough to go the distance.” “Maybe next year.”

Sound familiar?

If you’ve ever dreamed of finishing a marathon swim but life, doubt, or the voice in your head keeps stopping you, this episode is for you.

Because what if… ➡️ You didn’t need to train for a full year? ➡️ You could stay injury-free, even with cross-training? ➡️ You actually enjoyed the process and finished strong?

That’s exactly what Becka did. 🔥 In her 50s. 🔥 With just 1.2 miles as her longest swim in July. 🔥 And in only 3 months, she completed a 10K (6.2 miles) in open water. ✅ Finish time: 3:46:55 @ 2:05/100y

3 months before the 10k race, she asked me:

“Is that enough time to train?” I said, "Yes with right strategy. But we need to start training now."

Upon finishing, she said: 💭 “I don’t think I would have felt so good if I hadn’t had a summer of training.”

💭 Shangrila Thank you! I definitely would not have attempted this without your prodding and amazing coaching! Having someone suggest that this may be for you, then encouraging and giving a clear plan to the goal that you thought may be out of reach, is huge asset. Especially for this 54 yro women! Getting me way out of my comfort zone! Also introducing me to a new sport and a great group of people! Coach Jeffrey you both are the bombdiggity!!! Thank you!"

Together with Coach Jeffrey, we built a plan around her life, not the other way around.

She didn’t just finish, she found a whole new level in herself. She even brought her friends along.

But this episode isn’t just about Becka.

This is about what’s still possible for you. 🔥🏊‍♀️
