The Flywheel Effect...

About 7 years ago I completed an Ironman triathlon, but the flywheel started moving 7 years before that - I started doing bits of jogging, swimming and cycling to lose weight, and get a bit fitter, but then the flywheel took over and habits were built, the training got easier(ish), and fitting in training just became part of my daily routine.

These days I focus on daily walks, but I know that returning to triathlon, building a business, or any other long-term change, is just another flywheel - hard work to get started, but getting easier and easier every day after that…
