Perfectionism (Episode 103)

Perfectionism (Episode 103)

Perfectionism can be exhausting, especially in endurance sport. Athletes expect to have the *perfect* race. With the upcoming Ironman World Championship race in Kona, it's essential to understand what perfection is and what it is not. And, how does "perfection" exclude certain groups of people?

This week, Shaunna and Lisa dive into the definition of perfection and what groups are included and excluded. Perfection in terms of athletic performance is tied to something very specific, which, as the hosts discuss, has distinct roots in whiteness and maleness. How do we oppose ideas of perfection that come from a fast time, and instead embrace the perfection that comes from having a race that feels good?
