Your mindset will dictate not only your running, but your ability to overcome any adversity in life. One of my favorite reasons I love running is because it can teach you a lot about how to challenge yourself physically, emotionally, and mentally. One major factor to consider when racing for performance is your mindset, so in this episode, sports psychologist Kate Allgood will discuss…

  • Why is mindset and confidence important when running?
  • What are some tools to shift mindset and help runners perform at their highest level
  • What are some tools to improve self confidence when running 
  • Can visualization and imagery help with performance and achieve running goals?
  • How can runners maintain a sustainable flow or rhythm through the duration of a long distance race
  • How can runners build the mental tools to respond to a negative situation rather than just react?
