Then Henry Abbott and David Thorpe spoke with Steve Magness and Brad Stulberg, co-authors of Peak Performance and The Passion Paradox. David talked about how, as a coach, it’s routine to instill new instincts. Steve agreed, talking about how most running training is learning not to listen too hard when your body tells you to stop running! And he talked about “psychological safety” and the importance of feeling like you’re on a path to progress. Also, Brad talked about “police anxiety disorder.”
