More quotes by Kristin Armstrong
That's what our training is for, we practice not panicking, we practice breathing, we practice looking directly at the thing that scares us until we stop flinching, we practice overriding our Can't.
Kristin Armstrong
Disappointment is a sticky one, because no one can steal contentment, joy, gratitude, or peace - we have to give it away.
Kristin Armstrong
I love the big fresh starts, the clean slates like birthdays and new years, but I also really like the idea that we can get up every morning and start over.

I had to quit triathlons, I continued to be active and worked in advertising agency .

Cycling is not impactful. Its just like when you are injured, have a knee surgery or something, there are so many things that you can still do, you just have to find that other passion that's out there.

I became a lot more educated on this arthritis thing when I was diagnosed with it, but basically OA is a degenerative disease, which is definitely something that you're not going to be able to stop because it's going to be ongoing, but there are certain things you can do to slow down the progression.
Kristin Armstrong
I think I run my strongest when I run with joy, with gratitude, with focus, with grace. With that strategy in place I can push myself for pleasure, not punishment. Maybe you can only really go when you let go.

When it comes down to it, determination has a greater impact than giftedness.
Kristin Armstrong
I write about the power of trying, because I want to be okay with failing. I write about generosity because I battle selfishness. I write about joy because I know sorrow. I write about faith because I almost lost mine, and I know what it is to be broken and in need of redemption. I write about gratitude because I am thankful - for all of it.
Kristin Armstrong
I never imagined that divorce would be part of my life history or my family's legacy. When people say that divorce can be more painful than death, I understand why. But like any great trial, God uses everything for good, if we allow Him to heal us.

I think USA Cycling really needs to ride this wave and start looking at growing the sport. It's a tough one because cycling is such an endurance sport.
Kristin Armstrong
Cycling is such an endurance sport. I don't think it's the worst thing ever to start when you're in your twenties.
Kristin Armstrong
I'm not the kind to go out and tell people 'Oh yeah I'm a gold medalist.'
Kristin Armstrong
To be honest, if I had to pick somebody to be related to in sport, who's better than Lance Armstrong with what he's done for the sport and with his cancer foundation?
Kristin Armstrong
I don't think it's the worst thing ever to start when you're in your twenties. You're not burnt out, you're going to stick around and most of the best cyclists are in their 30s.
Kristin Armstrong
If we write our dreams and goals down, we dramatically increase our odds of realization. If we share them with others, they become potent and alive.
Kristin Armstrong
What I have learned about the sport of cycling is that you have to love it to do it because you're not going to retire off of it.
Kristin Armstrong
Running has taken me in, and continues to comfort, heal and challenge me in all kinds of magical ways. I am not a 'good runner' because I am me. I am a good 'me' because I am a runner.
