Your mental fitness is perhaps the most important piece of the racing puzzle. You can put in the hard hard work training, have amazing numbers, and be super strong, but if your head isn’t into it, your racing will lack the luster you’re looking for.
In this show, we discuss mental fortitude: what it is, why it’s important and how to develop it. We break the discussion into strategies to implement before your race day along with race day strategies that can help you put all the training efforts into place on your important day.
