After a restful—though slightly uneasy—night, my team and I rose at 4:00 AM, ready to take on our second day of training. Despite not sleeping well due to an upset stomach (thanks to some adventurous seafood), I was genuinely excited about our long open water swim ahead.

In the stillness of the night, with a warm cup of lemon tea in hand and the gentle rustle of pages from journaling, I reflect on the day—a day filled with purpose, people, and personal growth. From supporting promising young students to preparing for an upcoming triathlon, life has a beautiful way of intertwining meaning […]
