<p>I was reviewing the analytics on my recent posts and noticed something powerful: the stories that resonate most are the ones where I push myself to see what I&#8217;m&nbsp;<em>truly capable</em>&nbsp;of.</p>



<p>If you run, swim, or bike, you&#8217;ve probably said it too—&#8221;I&#8217;m never doing that again.&#8221; And yet, once the soreness fades, we start looking for the next challenge.</p>



<p>Right now, I&#8217;m writing this to the song&nbsp;<em>&#8220;Daydream&#8221;</em>, and I&#8217;m making this dream public:</p>



<p><img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f3af.png" alt="🎯" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" />&nbsp;<strong>I&#8217;m going to complete a full IRONMAN.</strong></p>



<p>That&#8217;s a&nbsp;<strong>2.4-mile swim</strong>,&nbsp;<strong>112-mile bike ride</strong>, and&nbsp;<strong>26.2-mile run</strong>.</p>



<p>I remember finishing my first 70.3 and being overwhelmed with joy, because I did something I never thought possible.</p>



<p>This isn&#8217;t about saying, &#8220;Look what I can do.&#8221;</p>



<p>It&#8217;s about&nbsp;<em>showing you what YOU can do</em>.</p>



<p>So here&#8217;s your nudge:</p>



<p><img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f539.png" alt="🔹" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> Think about the thing that scares you.</p>



<p><img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f539.png" alt="🔹" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> The thing that feels too far out of reach.</p>



<p><img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f539.png" alt="🔹" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> Now set that as your goal.</p>



<p>You&nbsp;<em>are</em>&nbsp;capable of more than you can imagine.</p>



<p>And I&#8217;m here cheering you on every step of the way.</p>



<p>Let&#8217;s chase the impossible.</p>



<p>And don&#8217;t forget to have a&nbsp;<strong>Fantastic Friday</strong>&nbsp;<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f4aa.png" alt="💪" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /></p>
