How do you overcome the dark moments that may present themself on a race course? This week’s discussion is all about the mindset that we carry with us as runners, and how we can leverage our mental strength to get us through challenging circumstances.

Through the lens of this past weekend’s marathon races (Indianapolis; New York City), we break down the circumstances of a race that may feel like it’s spiraling out of control. We’ve all had them and if you haven’t, you will at one point or another!

Key points of discussion include:

Racing is great because you don’t need a perfect training cycle, ideal weather, or the greatest plan in the world. All you need is the curiosity to explore your capabilities and the willingness to empty the tank.

Apply the perspectives and mindset ideas that we discuss in this episode and embrace all that racing has to offer!
