Training diaries keep athletes focused and motivated. We often don’t see much progress from day to day or even from week to week. That’s when it’s easy to fall into the ‘training, training, training mentality and forget the bigger goal. Writing a diary forces an athlete to take the time and put training progress into perspective. This helps to distance from the physical demand of training and reconnect with the sole purpose of it. Over time, athletes can see how strong or how fast they’ve got, compared to exactly where they were a month or a year ago. These ‘small wins’ and milestones serve as stepping points to a bigger goal and give extra motivation to continue. “knowing in not enough; we must apply. Willing is not enough we must do it” Michael Kirkland(9)said.
