Cozumel, Mexico

Groundhog Day “…he lives the same day again and again while retaining the memory of each iteration that he has lived before…” He feels like every other day is just like the previous one. Life loses its colors. His energy level go low. Nothing to do, nowhere to go. He falls asleep. He forgets what’s […]

Christmas Mission: Cozumel, Mexico

Tulum or not Tulum? I woke up this morning feeling absolutely horrible. Fewer, ear infection, sore throat and beautiful racoon circles under the eyes. To make me feel better – tree hours bike ride on the schedule for today. I never skip workouts. Mental masturbation lasted the entire morning. On the bike ride and even […]

IRONMAN 70.3 | Hawaii – “The Big Island”

PRE-STORY Mental Masturbation Marbella race completely destroyed my expectations, flipped everything upside down. For about 3 weeks after the race I suffered from depressing thoughts and emotions. I got locked up in my head. I almost dropped out of sport of triathlon… It was dark and I searched for help at different places. I was […]

Practice Voluntary Hardship

One of the ways to build your Self Discipline is to practice voluntary hardship. Voluntary Hardship means constantly testing ourselves by making our life routinely uncomfortable in some way.
What kind of Voluntary Hardship will you practice?

You don’t move to live in Hawaii for big houses, expensive cars or fancy clothes.
You come to the Big Island for fresh water and clean air.
You come here for life.

IRONMAN 70.3 | MARBELLA, Spain

Pre-Story: Since the Paris marathon which I did on January 6th this year I decided to focus entirely on triathlons. Despite my coach’s concerns in regards to racing frequency, I set myself ambitious goal to do 5 IRONMAN Races this year. Four of them are 70.3 and one full distance, to close the season. 4 […]

I sit on steps of my house, tighten laces on my sneakers. A big trip is ahead of me and it begins right now. The phone buzzes in my pocket – a message from Airbnb. The owner is asking me where am I and how soon will I arrive to his place today. Wait, today?! […]

Stress Less. Perform at Your Best and Enjoy the Trip while Racing Abroad

FLIGHT & ACCOMMODATION I suggest booking your flight and accommodation at least 2-3 months in advance. Keep in mind that you are not the only one who will need a place to stay, as close as possible to the venue. Time is money! The longer you wait to book your flight and hotel, the more […]

Road Trip to Pittsburgh, March ’19

Few years ago, my employment journey with Uber began from two month on-boarding & training at the Pittsburgh office. I haven’t had much time to spare outside of work, however I made an effort to explore the city and see new places. My initial thoughts and impressions of the city were not too bright. Ever […]

Toronto ZOO in Winter

Since the childhood I’ve always loved going to the zoo with my parents. Luckily for me, I live 15 minuted drive from Toronto Zoo. I realize that it’s a winter time here, therefore I won’t get to see much, however I’ll give it a shot and take the most of it. Not too many cars on […]

AMERICA’S TOUGHEST MUDDER SOUTH, Central TEXAS – MAY 05, 2018

I often meet people, healthy people, who tell me they wish they “could” run, wish they “could” bike, wish they ”could” get in shape. They wish they had the discipline or self-control needed. They act as if you are either born with this mysterious gift of willpower or not… The bad news is that no […]

RACE RECAP The venue took place at the sports complex with hot drinks and even live music. I got my bib and started to prepare for the race. Standing at the front line of the start line I got a good vision of the road ahead of me. 3…2…1 and we all set our bodies […]

5 Years Away from Home 🇺🇦

Before the Storm This trip back home is a complete social, emotional and physical detox. This is a reset of me. It’s stress-test of all the labels I’ve put on myself, of what I made myself to believe I am, of what I made myself to think is important to me. This is the time to […]
