Ukuthi Kanjani Ngempela Ukuziqeqeshela (futhi Yiba) yi-Ironman
-Delile
Wonke umgijimi osezingeni eliphezulu, umdlali wezemidlalo okhokhelwayo, noma i-triathlete kwakudingeka aqale kwenye indawo. Lapho itheyiphu yomugqa wokuqeda iphulwa noma kumiswa irekhodi elisha, okuwukuphela kwento ongayibona inkazimulo, izibani ezikhanyayo, nezindondo ezicwebezelayo. Kepha ngemuva kwayo yonke injabulo kunomsebenzi omkhulu onzima-futhi lokho kukubeka kancane. Sikhuthazwe abasubathi abamangalisayo ababonakala benza okungakholakali ku-Ironman World Championship e-Kailua-Kona, e-Hawaii (njengalaba besifazane abangu-6 abahle kakhulu) sinqume ukubhekisisa ukuthi impilo nokuqeqeshwa kunjani ngempela kumsubathi okuleli zinga. .
U-Meredith Kessler ungumgijimi okhokhelwayo onguthathu kanye nompetha we-Ironman oseqede imijaho ye-Ironman engaphezu kwama-50 emhlabeni jikelele, okuhlanganisa ne-World Championship e-Kona. Yini-ke edingekayo ukuze alungele umncintiswano ongaka? Futhi ibuye ibukeke kanjani i-CV yompetha we-Ironman? UKessler usinike ukubukeka kwangaphakathi:
Usuku empilweni yakhe oluholela emcimbini omkhulu njenge-Ironman World Championship lusabeka kakhulu kunalokho ubucabanga ukuthi kuzoba njalo. Bheka uhlelo lwakhe olujwayelekile lokuqeqeshwa, uphethiloli, kanye nokululama:
4:15 ekuseni I-Wake-up run-2 amamayela ayi-5
Faka uphethiloli nge-oatmeal kanye nesipuni esingu-1 sebhotela le-alimondi; inkomishi encane yekhofi
5:30 ekuseni Isikhathi sokubhukuda-amakhilomitha ama-5 kuye kwayi-7
Faka amafutha ohambeni ngeyogathi yesiGreki, iBungalow Munch Granola, nobhanana
8:00 a.m. Iseshini yokugibela ibhayisikili yangaphakathi noma ngaphandle-amahora amabili kuya kwama-5
Phindisela futhi uvuselele amanzi ngesidlo sasemini sesiphuzo se-ZÜPA NOMA esilungele ukuphekwa, isemishi le-turkey eline-avocado noma i-hummus, nezingcezu ezimbili zikashokoleti omnyama
12:00 ntambama Iseshini yokuqeqesha amandla nomqeqeshi, uKate Ligler
1:30 ntambama Ukuthanjiswa kwezicubu ezijulile noma ukwelashwa ngokomzimba (inqubo yokukhipha esebenzayo, i-ultrasound, noma ukugqugquzela ugesi)
3:00 p.m. Isikhathi sokuphumula sokuphumula emabhuzwini wokubuyisa wokucindezela, ukubheka ama-imeyili, noma ukuthatha ikhofi nomngani
5:15 p.m. I-Pre-dinner aerobic-endurance run-6 kuya ku-12 miles
7:00 p.m. Isikhathi sedina nabangani noma nomndeni
9:00 ntambama Netflix futhi uzipholele...ubuyele kulawo mabhuthi okubuyisela
11:00 p.m. Lala, ngoba kusasa liqala phansi futhi!
Futhi okuholela osukwini lomjaho ungacabangi ukuthi uzomthola ezulazula kulawo mabhuzu okubuyisela isonto lonke. UNope, uKessler uthi uziqeqesha kuze kube wusuku olungaphambi komjaho "ukugcina imisipha idubula kahle." Nakhu lapho ozomthola khona kusasele isonto ngaphambi kwanoma yimuphi umjaho omkhulu onjenge-Ironman ogcwele ibanga:
UMsombuluko: Ukugibela ibhayisikili imizuzu engu-90 (imizuzu engu-45 ngejubane lomjaho) kanye nokugijima imizuzu engu-40
NgoLwesibili: Isikhathi sokubhukuda semizuzu engama-90 (amakhilomitha ayi-6) ngamasethi aqondene nomjaho, ukuzivocavoca okulula kwemizuzu engama-40 (imizuzu eyi-18 ngejubane lomjaho), kanye nesikhathi semizuzu engama-60 "sokuqalisa" nomqeqeshi, uKate Ligler
NgoLwesithathu: Ukugibela ibhayisikili lamahora amabili (imizuzu engama-60 ngejubane lomjaho), imizuzu engu-20 "uzizwe kamnandi" ubalekela ibhayisikili, bese ubhukuda ihora eli-1
NgoLwesine: Isikhathi sokubhukuda sehora eli-1 (eyokugcina ngaphambi komjaho), ijog yemizuzu engu-30 "yokuhlola izicathulo" (ukuqinisekisa ukuthi izicathulo zomjaho sezikulungele ukuhamba), kanye neseshini yokuqeqesha amandla eyimizuzu engama-30
ULwesihlanu Imizuzu engu-60- ukuya kwengama-90 "isheke ibhayisikili" ukuhamba ngezikhawu ezilula kakhulu (ukuqinisekisa ukuthi ibhayisikili lisebenza kahle futhi ligiya kahle)
NgoMgqibelo (Usuku Lomjaho): 2- ukuya kumamayela angu-3 wokuvuka kanye nebhulakufesi!
NgeSonto: Lolu wusuku olulodwa engingazizwa sengathi ngifuna ukuhamba kakhulu. Uma kukhona, ngangingena emanzini bese ngibhukuda kancane noma ngihlale kubhavu oshisayo ukuze ngidambise izicubu zomzimba.
Ngenkathi uKessler ehlala engumsubathi, ukufika kuleli zinga lokuqeqeshwa ukuze akwazi ukuncintisana ngempumelelo nabasubathi abakhulu kunabo bonke emhlabeni akuyona into ayithandayo. Ukuba yi-triathlete yobungcweti kungumsebenzi wakhe wosuku kakhulu, ngakho-ke ungalindela ukuthi abeke amahora afanayo njenganoma iyiphi enye i-9-to-5er.
"Ngiya emsebenzini nsuku zonke ngenza izinto eziningi ezinjengokuqeqesha, ukufaka amanzi, ukufaka amandla, ukuvuselela, izinsiza kusebenza zomkhiqizo wethu, ukubhuka izindiza zomjaho olandelayo, ukubuyisa ama-imeyili abalandeli; lona ngumsebenzi wami," kusho uKessler. "Kodwa-ke, njengesisebenzi kwa-Apple, ngizozinika isikhathi somndeni nabangane ukuze ngigcine leyo mpilo ilingana."
U-Kessler wayeka imisebenzi yakhe yolunye usuku, ehlanganisa ukutshalwa kwezimali kwetoho, ukuqeqeshwa kwe-triathlon, kanye namakilasi okufundisa nge-spin, ngoMashi ka-2011 ukuze akwazi ukunikela sonke isikhathi sakhe ekuphishekeleni kwakhe ukugijima okukhokhelwayo. (NjengoKessler, le ndondo yegolide yama-Olimpiki yasuka yaba yi-accountant yaba yizingqwele zomhlaba.) Manje, ngonyaka ophelele, ongenakho ukulimala, uzoqedela imicimbi engama-12 ye-triathlon, efaka ingxube yama-Ironmans agcwele nengxenye mhlawumbe Umjaho webanga lama-Olympic ufafazwe ngesilinganiso esihle.
Yini esingayisho, ngaphandle kokuthi sihlatshwe umxhwele, sababaza, futhi sakhuthazwa ngokuphelele nguKessler nabo bonke abanye abadlali abasezingeni eliphezulu abafakazela ukuthi ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, ukuzinikela, nothando olukhulu, noma yimuphi umuntu wesifazane angaba yi-Ironwoman. (Lo mama omusha ukwenzile.)
