Running and Mental Confidence (toughness) Strategies
Channel: Seth James DeMoor
Date: 2019-04-17

Here we go, developing our mental confidence in long distance running, what a big topic to dive into here on the channel. We likely will revisit this topic throughout the coming weeks and months of training as we all aspire to our peak races. I prefer to approach mental toughness from the standpoint of mental confidence, why? FITNESS DOES NOT LIE! That’s right, no amount of mental toughness will overcome a lack of fitness in long distance running. I’m firmly in the camp of you gotta put in the work if you expect great results on race day. We can aspire to be tough, especially in the last 5-10% of a running race, but the race is usually won in the first 90% of a race. Rather than mental toughness, I focus on mental confidence in my training so that I arrive on the starting line as yes, confident as possible….which in turn makes you tough and even tougher to beat.
