Simon Ward and Malcolm Brown part 2, Athlete Psychology

Britain’s top running coach Malcolm Brown returns for part 2 as we discuss the role of athlete mindset and psychology in the success of a long term training plan and racing, as well as topics including:

Training

• Why endurance sports requires a long term (several years) approach to training
• Why it's important for athletes not to get too worried about the outcome of any particular single session
• The paradox that means no session is critical, but every session is critical, and why training matters but it doesn't matter
• How reading the book “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People” can help your training
• Why you must be equally enthusiastic about recovery as you are about training

Racing

• Why you should aim to peak a maximum of 2 times per year
• How the best performances come when you are committed physically, mentally, and emotionally
