Mind, body, and soul

According to the dictionary definition of the word, an athlete is someone who is trained or skilled in exercises, sports, or games requiring physical strength, agility, or stamina. However, in obtaining the level of skill and training necessary requires something more – it takes exceptional strength of mind, excelling control of the body, and an unrelenting drive from deep within, the soul. 

In the coming three-part video series, we’ve assigned three of our #revitriders one of the three elements each – one they excel in – and asked how they believe their respective element reflects on themselves. 

It’s not easy being rejected. It’s incredibly difficult. Keeping yourself from giving in and giving up is even harder. Especially if there’s no hope but holding on to the belief your time will inevitably come and making sure you’re fully focused, well-trained, and as ready as can be for when it does. That’s exactly the kind of hardship Alonso López faced after suddenly being sidelined at the end of the 2021 season. His story is proof that mental fortitude and unwavering determination, to keep despair and self-doubt at bay, isn’t just a perk – it’s an absolute prerequisite to even just be offered the chance to shine on the world stage. And shine Alonso did.
