Never Rushed, Always in Rhythm

SwimRun with Trista Mennen & Amy Bush

Takeaways

  • There’s nothing wrong with wanting to conquer the elements or best the person next to you. Competition is in your DNA. But there’s something wonderful about moving seamlessly through nature. It allows you to create a deeper connection with yourself and your environment.

  • Physical challenges provide an opportunity for self-discovery, but they don’t have to be a solo endeavor. If you miss the team element, swimrun might be for you.
