-365

Super ready to begin my 365 day challenge!! Tonight I've decided that I'm going to do a mini workout tutorial set up for myself. Some pointers and plans to help me critique myself.

Get up EVERY morning and tell yourself “I can do this” 👊🏻⁣ ⁣ 94.5 mile bike ride and 3.5mile run ✅ Ride went better than expected and run started good until my hip decided to remind me it’s still not 💯 pain-free yet. 😢 Ended up cutting it short by 20 minutes per coach’s advice. After 3 weeks of pain I broke down and went to see my ortho. X-ray doesn’t show any issues so it most likely just very tight muscles. Lots of foam rolling, massage and ice to help it loosen up since taking anti-inflammatories are out of the question due to my UC. Doing my best to not let this bring me down. Just need to stay positive. I made it through #immt last year after shoulder surgery. I can get through this too! 🤷🏻‍♀️⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #ifuelwith🌱 #trilife #imboulder #bikerunbrick #schwartzstrong #orbea #resultsstarthere #altra #trainharder #garmin #orbea #trainingpeaks #womenwhotri #ironmantraining #plantstrong #plantbasedtriathlete ⁣ #mymentaltherapy #momsthattri #ironmantri #ironmantraining #endurance #plantbased #tailwindnutrition #triathlonlife (at San Antonio, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/myraschwartz.plantpowered/p/BxEG5T0jpuV/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=p62jhdwerika

Epic swim last night. 🌧 ☔️⚡️⛈ ☔️⁣⚡️ ⁣ We had a small window to get in our 4,200 yard swim. The thunderstorm decided to hit sooner than expected and we had to make a hasty exit as ⚡️and 🏊🏻‍♀️🏊🏻‍♂️don’t mix. 😱 Walked along the edge of the lake in full wetsuits and googles in torrential down pour trying to avoid slicing up our feet on the rocks. 🤣 Pretty darn hilarious site as we were walking back to our car. Many thanks to our coach who waited for us to make sure we were safe and sound. ⁣ ⁣ We couldn’t help but laugh off the adventurous swim and the hike to our 🚙 Nonetheless a great swim.⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #teamschwartz #imboulder #36days #garmin #resultsstarthere #2xu #rokasports #trainharder #womenwhotri #momlife #ironmantraining #plantbasedtriathlete #loveyourself #embraceyourself ⁣ #flawsome #noonesperfect #getfitwithme #swimbikerun #mymentaltherapy #momsthattri #ironmantri #ironmantraining #endurance #plantstrong #plantbased #triathlonlife (at Boerne, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/myraschwartz.plantpowered/p/BxComUFjEEZ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=15z3uqg2qyyt6

Triathlon - It's not about finding your limits. It's about finding out what lies just beyond them. ~ unknown⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ St. Patty’s day run was mentally hard on tired legs!! Sometimes you just have to be your own cheer squad to keep going when you want to stop. This was one of those runs finding what was just beyond my limits finishing faster than I started.⁣⁣ 😀 ⁣⁣ So what the heck happened to the warm weather we had last weekend!?! Cold weather running is great but there’s no guarantee we’ll have cold weather in Galveston in 3 weeks or in Boulder in 12 weeks.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #teamschwartz #imtexas703 #resultsstarthere #altra #trainharder #garmin #womenwhotri #momlife #ironmantattoo #plantstrong #ironmantri #coldweather #plantbasedtriathlete ##mymentaltherapy #texas #momsthattri #endurance #altrarunning #plantbased #triathlonlife #momofteenboy (at San Antonio, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/myraschwartz.plantpowered/p/BvHm9amhdMY/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=12otu3uc7772n

One of my big reasons why I said yes to coaching was to hold myself accountable to my overall wellness. It opened my eyes to living a life that I loved waking up to every single day. I knew, that if I was just showing up for myself, I would only show up when it was convenient. I had tried it before and failed, because the only one who knew when I did or didn’t press play. I knew I needed to coach because other people needed me to show up, so they could believe they could too. They needed to believe they too could have a better quality of life. I realized that if I didn’t share my journey, not only would I be holding myself back from my potential, but I would be holding others back from theirs. So this is for YOU; the other introverted Myra’s of the world that needed someone to show up for themselves, so you could show up for you. 🤞🏻 #thecoachlife #lifechanger #surgeryrecovery #thisis50 #innerstrength #momwithtats #resultsstarthere #trainharder #womenwhotri #momlife #ironmantraining #trilife #plantbasedtriathlete #quotes #momsthattri #ironmantri #ironmantraining #texasgirl #coffeaddict #plantstrong #triathlonlife #momofteenboy #ifuelwith🌱 #schwartzstrong #introvert #onlydaughter (at Texas) https://www.instagram.com/myraschwartz.plantpowered/p/BvDX0TVjNtW/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=algor36bm0dr

When you do something you’ve never ever done before 🙌🏻 Love my coach’s comment 🤣🤣⁣ I think I have the best swim and tri coach ever. They both get me 😃 Excited for this tri season after a mentally and physically tough one last year. I lost myself in my training to survive and everything else suffered. No more sadness. Time to move forward, right? ⁣ ⁣ Praise and Appreciation... ⁣ You may receive praise — or not. You can’t depend upon it from others. If you do good things expecting others to acknowledge it, you set yourself up for disappointment. 😔 ⁣ ⁣ Don’t do something to earn people’s gratitude; do something because you want to do it, it helps you feel better, or it matches your integrity. 🙌🏻 ⁣ ⁣ Praise yourself. When you take a step in the right direction, overcome a funky mood, or do something kind for others – pat yourself on the back.⁣ ⁣ It doesn’t matter what others see. What matters is what you think about yourself.⁣ ⁣ Make a personal commitment to engage in encouraging self-talk. This leads to self-validation. 😀⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #ifuelwith🌱#trilife #texas703 #schwartzstrong #thecoachlife #lifechanger #surgeryrecovery #garmin #resultsstarthere #trainharder #womenwhotri #momlife #ironmantraining #plantbasedtriathlete #quotes #momsthattri #ironmantri #ironmantraining #plantstrong #triathlonlife #momofteenboy (at San Antonio, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/myraschwartz.plantpowered/p/BuXtgglDqmi/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=12vy850u06mym

For the last 2 years or so I’ve started my week with a Muscle Recovery yoga practice from my online video library with my hubby. After months of struggling I can finally do Chaturanga without pain. 😀😀 I couldn’t do it all last year after my rotar cuff surgery so today is progress.⁣ I sure need this stretch after this past weekends training. My calves and legs were tight. 😫 I’ve been seeing improvement in both my cycling and running since i started a daily Pilates and yoga practice in addition to my Monday morning sesh with the hubs. All around stronger 🙌🏻 ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #dreambig #happylife #resultsstarthere #balancedlifestyle #trainharder #garmin #womenwhotri #momlife #plantstrong #yogapose #plantbasedtriathlete #pilates #mymentaltherapy #momsthattri #ironmantri #ironmantraining #endurance #plantbased #triathlonlife #momofteenboy (at San Antonio, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuVFhRTjt-I/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1k4ledqi2gekj

Not every workout will be badass, otherwise there’s no room for growth from the lessons you learn. Today was one of those days. Woke up hungry and should’ve eaten something before heading to the pool. After 1,600y I had to pull the plug with 400y still unfinished. 😔 Form was going south and my focus wasn’t there. As my swim coach said, “don’t reinforce bad form just to finish the workout.”⁣ ⁣ Learn to listen to your body!!⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #ifuelwith🌱#trilife #texas703 #schwartzstrong #thecoachlife #lifechanger #surgeryrecovery #garmin #resultsstarthere #trainharder #womenwhotri #momlife #ironmantraining #plantbasedtriathlete #loveyourself #embraceyourself #flawsome #noonesperfect #getfitwithme #swimbikerun #mymentaltherapy #momsthattri #ironmantri #ironmantraining #endurance #plantstrong #plantbased #triathlonlife #momofteenboy (at Gold's Gym) https://www.instagram.com/myraschwartz.plantpowered/p/BuoLxJaDN5C/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=kkvq2z8v2bj8

Have to admit I have a love hate relationship with the #treadmill. I always seem to push myself so hard that my face is beet red. Now I do my best to avoid them at all cost. I will run in the cold and rain so I don’t have to dread my run. 🤣🤣 Today would have been a great outdoor run except the hubby found out he has the flu 😷🤒🤧 and won’t let me run in the dark outside for my own safety. ☺️ ⁣ ⁣ I remember the day when I’d hop on the #dreadmill every weekday morning for 30-60 min. #boring I thought it was the only way to burn calories so I could eat whatever I wanted. 🙄 It took hitting rock bottom in my health inside and out before I found something that I actually enjoyed and saw the benefits of my hard work..... then everything changed... a whole new mindset....a whole new lifestyle... an amazing community I love. It’s been life altering to stay the least. ✌🏻 Then my eyes were open to the world of #triathlon 😍⁣ Has it been life altering for you as well??? ⁣ ⁣ #texas703 #schwartzstrong #thecoachlife #lifechanger #surgeryrecovery #garmin #resultsstarthere #trainharder #momlife #ironmantraining #flawsome #altrarunning #texas #loveyourself #coffeeaddict #embraceyourself #noonesperfect #getfitwithme #swimbikerun #mymentaltherapy #momsthattri #ironmantri #ironmantraining #endurance #plantstrong #plantbased (at Gold's Gym) https://www.instagram.com/myraschwartz.plantpowered/p/Bucb0DtDAOp/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1gr5xq2cpjpyz
