  • Summary

  • An often overlooked or underestimated element of training is mental strength. We delve into the depths of our STRAVA stats and are pretty clued up about nutrition, right down to grams of crabs per hour, but how do we deal with negative thoughts? Those nagging mental niggles that creep up when we're on the verge of doing something epic.

    As Giovanni explains, the easiest thing to do in those moments is try and detach and get as much space between us and the little dream-crushing critters, but what's actually required is to tune in...

    As the title of this episode suggests, today's conversation takes a look at the mental strategies we can deploy when the going get's tough - be that on race day or in training. You may be familiar with a few:

    • Reframing
    • Visualisation
    • and the power of positive thinking,

    Wether you're completely new to mindfulness practices or would like to add a few more tools to your mental tool kit, this episode is sure to inform. We highly recommend giving it a listen before an upcoming race!
