“'It’s supposed to be fun” - a simple idea that brought me back into racing and has been my reminder when the anxiety rises as to what the overall goal is. Fun isn’t a constant state, just like happiness, but the pursuit can be. The concept of competitive sport being fun isn’t something we hear very often, even within youth sports. We tend to idealize unachievable perfection and think that winning equals happiness. For me, the focus is the process and the goal is enjoyment.
