Today's show

Shannon is both an athlete and a coach.  She competed in the equestrian sport of Three Day Eventing for fifteen years. Like a triathlon on a horse!

She then got interested in the sport of running and has raced distances ranging from the 800m to ultra trail events.

An interest in the psychology of achievement led her to completing an undergraduate degree in psychology and a Masters in Applied Positive Psychology from the University of Pennsylvania.

Through Hypo2 Sport and B78 Coaching, Shannon now coaches athletes in several different sports to improve their performance.

In this episode we talk about:
  • How to approach setting goals for your running.
  • How to get the best out of any run.
  • How to combat negative thoughts so you can run feeling energized and motivated.
  • Ways to become a more patient runner.
  • How to enhance your mental toughness.
  • How to develop a game plan for every run or race.
  • The importance of mindfulness.
  • Strategies to help you cope with and come back from an injury or setback.
  • Shannon’s recommended books
  • And much more!

Enjoy the show.

Cheers,

Mark
