Take a look at Adam’s reflection ( the quintessential Hoosier-like story in many ways) on the CrossFit Games and it reminds me of the importance of establishing healthy goals and then sharing it with your friends and family. Healthy goals meaning focusing on doing one’s best and putting out your top performance in a given moment. It doesn’t matter if your goal is the CrossFit Games or a pull up – both deserve your best effort and share it with others to truly take ownership of that goal. It is amazing to me how other people will offer to help and support you if you just let them know where you want to go!
