On "When Your Sport Ends" we practice what we preach. During our episode "Fail to Succeed" this season, we recommended trying a new sport, hobby, career, etc. without the need to be the best right away. That is a hard feeling to get passed, but it is extremely important for growth in any realm of life.

We planned a 10 day trip to the American Birkebeiner in Hayward, Wisconsin to cross-country ski on the famous Birkie 100 kilometers of groomed trails. We are going to be learning XC Skate Ski (the form of skiing used for racing) for the next week, and decided to share our "Pre-Birkie" thoughts with you on this episode.

We discuss:

Getting comfortable with being uncomfortable

Staying outside in subzero weather for hours at a time

Learning to be kind to yourself while learning a new skill

The excitement of learning a new sport with your partner

and more...
