#251: athletes under pressure, the why of doing hard things - a podcast by Red Kite Prayer

John has been giving some thought to the brouhaha over gymnast Simone Biles' withdrawal from the Olympic Games and how none of us really knows what is going on in her head and how, maybe, we could cut her some slack. In response to a listener question, Patrick takes a look at what we get out of doing really hard things, like maybe a 200-mile gravel race and how a day that doesn't go to plan can be a more rewarding experience than a day that goes perfectly.
