Does triathlon numb your emotional responses to life?

I have a theory (and so does my hubby) that most endurance athletes are running away from something… when you’re not zoning out during training to endure the pain, you’re too tired to even think about anything else. It’s almost like training can numb those emotional nerve endings.

What am I running away from?

That’s why I love to be involved with film. It makes me feel again. After spending 30 hours a week trying not to feel it takes some practice to bounce between the 2 careers! Now crying on the trainer while watching a good movie…THAT takes practice!
