EDGE snapshot
Personal foundation
- Context
- Today was an absolute gauntlet. I had my PT test, and I’ll be honest: the older I get, the more these tests feel like an uphill battle. I followed my usual ritual—Celsius, coffee, and plenty of water a few hours out—but for some reason, the engine just wouldn't start today. It was one of those days where the plan was solid, but the performance just wasn’t there.
- Decision/action
- When I started feeling unwell mid-test, I chose to persevere and finish the remaining events. Unfortunately, I dealt with some pretty severe GI distress that left me completely dehydrated by the end. It was a battle of wills just to cross the finish line.
- Takeaway/impact/lesson learned
- I’ve officially retired the Celsius. Moving forward, I’ll be sticking to a routine that doesn't involve my body staging a full-scale revolt. lol
