New racers will get a fast-track road map to racing success while experienced competitors will deepen all aspects of their mental game for even better performances.
Drawing from their two decades of professional racing experience, runners Lauren Fleshman and Roisin McGettigan-Dumas will guide you to:
· Set goals you can achieve.
· Map out the steps to achieve your goals.
· Log your workouts.
· Keep it realand avoid harmful obsession with outcomes.
· Make racing an expression of your training.
· Set smart race strategies.
· Relax! And train with intention.

· Avoid comparing yourself to others.
· Get in the zone the week before your race.
· Own your strengthsand root out your weaknesses.
· Build up the mental case to enable success.
· Keep it fun.
