When do people perform their best?
-Feel supported
-Self-worth isn't on the line
-Secure in who they are
-Pursuing out of joy, not fear.
-Exploring what's possible instead of obsessing over outcomes.
-Are striving for mastery instead of perfection
-They are having FUN
There is no secret.
Consistency over intensity.
Small wins instead of chasing heroic efforts.
Progress beats perfection.
Solid work. Repeated for a long time. That's it.
How slow should you go on your recovery runs?
Here's a tip from coach Mihali Igloi:
"Run so slowly that the pace almost hurts. Fatigue should not be produced, it should be resolved."

This is why I love worlds & actual racing.
Julia Paternian, competing for Urugauy is in 3rd trying to win that countries first worlds medal.
Her PR is 2:27.
That's between 9 & 16 minutes slower than the athletes in front and just behind her...
And yet there she is in 3rd.
