Being a mom of little ones AND an elite athlete offers a unique set of circumstances, challenges and strengths.

To be an exceptional athlete, you have to prioritize things like your training, health and recovery.

To be an exceptional mom, you have to prioritize things like your children’s health, safety and needs.

Trying to marry the two sometimes seems impossible because they can be at such odds of what comes first and what wins out.

But I’m learning each and every day how to combine them and change the way I’ve always approached them.

If you keep doing things the way you’ve always done them, you’ll continue to do what you’ve always done.

But if you want more, if you want to do something amazing, if you want to rise above, if you want to do things that no one else has done... you have to be willing to do things that others aren’t willing to do and blaze your own trail for others to follow.

I don’t know about you, but I sure love a good adventure. I’m thankful you’re here with me and hope that you’ll continue to walk with me down this new path!

Give me a 👊🏼 or your fav emoji below so I know you’re in for the long haul! #tokyo2020ne
