There is an article written in the ITU’s page reporting
a Mexican triathlete caught using performance enhancing drugs. Doping points out to the real issue we
encounter in most of the athletes: “they
are running for their life.” I tell team
members that “we are running for our life” daily; going to work and perform the
best we can to continue in the game.
Being a professional takes time and training so “running for our life”
does not become "running for our life" literally. To focus in
our work we have to know that “we are running for our life” daily. We have to believe that this is our situation
and more importantly in a Third World Country.
Our society takes this problem lightly and Mexican triathletes end up using performance enhancing
drugs to stay alive. Our society takes
training lightly and at the end “running for our life” is literally “running
for our life.” We hammer the concept of “running
for your life” in our team to improve training; economical, physical and mental
freedom depends on how focused and devoted we are to what we do daily; if we know and understand that we are running for our life we should take training more seriously. It is not the way the FMTRI and related teams take it.
A phrase we use with team members is: “you need to buy
your freedom.” We are in this stage
since the beginning of our days. LeBron
James –talking about athletes,- finally reached that point of freedom. It takes time and commitment “to buy our
freedom.”
Our sport centers are not like LeBron’s school. CNAR is the opposite.
