Race goals too high, or maybe to low? How do you handle the ups and downs of a very long day. Never believe how you feel, for one. Practice getting through certain feelings. If you're going to obsess about certain things, make sure they are the right things. Just like life, races can go up and down. Live in the gray. Figure out a way. 

Topics:

• Morning activities
• Second guessing
• Distraction Mode
• Getting your mind right
• Thinking about the RIGHT things before a race
• Planning for difference scenarios
• Sifting through a million training thoughts
• Getting over a false start
• Let go of extreme emotions
• Races as microcosm of life
• Things will change
• Thinking about a day off too much?
• Cut your race into chunks
• The swim course could be long (or short)
• Don’t judge a race too early
• Temper over-excrement and negativity
• Don’t walk
• There’s only so much you can withstand
• Did you look at your last 72 hours?
• Be in the gray on race day
• Your body doesn’t care
