This is it. Race day. You have done everything you needed to do, there is no turning back now. Behind the blocks you hear the long, clear whistle and step up. Your dive is perfect, you nail your walls, your stroke feels powerful—everything seems just right. But it isn’t. You hit the wall, look at the clock, and it is not what you are expecting. You didn’t get that cut. You didn’t get that medal. You didn’t even get a best time.
You have failed.

The more dedicated you are to something, the more crushing it is when it does not work out the way you had hoped. Anyone could agree that after thousands upon thousands of yards, countless early morning practices, and myriad other sacrifices, that it only seems right that you should get the goal you have been working so hard for.
