Murphy’s Peaking Cycle
I’m a superstitious person. If you’ve known me for more than a handful of days, you have probably picked up on this. I don’t fuck with ghosts and cemeteries, I don’t wash my hair on my birthday, I never discuss attempts before a meet, and something always goes wrong with every single meet prep. If I ever experience one undisturbed meet prep, I will immediately be terrified it’s the end of my career.
That being said, there is no such thing as a smooth meet prep for me. Someone close to me gets sick, a breakup happens, a blowout with my best friend, or an injury comes out of nowhere.
You name it, it has probably happened.
