Accountability

Resolutions.

Who hasn’t made one and then watch it go by the wayside in just a couple of days?

A google search of how to hold yourself accountable will get you everything from articles from Forbes magazine to a whole slew of apps to help hold yourself accountable.

All the ideas and apps have a ton of value as long as you hold yourself accountable and use and apply them.

Do they work? You bet but the key is to find the ones that works for you.

For me and my goal of completing my second Leadville 100 MTB and earning another belt buckle it starts with sitting down and writing out a training plan that takes me from January to the day of the race on August 12th.

Around that plan I build out the rest of my life from getting up at 430am to ride and work out before work, to going to bed early, eating healthy, drinking less beer (that’s the real tough one) and making sure I still have time to hang with family and friends.

Last year I also added in the plan of creating video content around my experiences as I trained for the Leadville 100. Last year started well but the deeper I got into the training the less time and energy I had for video.

So this year I am going to try and do a better job of holding myself accountable when it comes to creating video content. Check out the video below as I kickoff the 2023 season.
