With this episode, I fly solo to bring you updates on current events and then some of my top tips for the mental side of race day execution. On current events, we talk about the Boston registration cutoff and what I think about it, a few thoughts the World Champs so far, and of course the epic day at the Berlin Marathon where a world record almost went down.

Then at 29 minutes, I turn to the mental side of race day preparation and execution, giving you 8 tangible strategies to put to put as you prepare for your fall race regardless of the distance. I give you 4 tips for pre-race and 4 for during-race. While personally I use all of these tactics, you might find only a handful resonate with you. If so, add them to your mental toolkit and then go smash your goals!
