This is more like skating. It's just me against the clock. When I'm on the track, it's my world. I like that better. I can't blame anybody.
Imagery is huge.
Whether you're just laying around or watching TV, during a commercial break, you just relax and focus. Sort of get within yourself, because that's the way you need to be for your race. I imagine everything, being on the starting line, what the track looks like, focusing on the lanes. And that's something I'll do even in a training session. I think I picked it up in skating, and brought it over here.
