Podcast & Blog: Racing Thoughts in Real Life
The Racing Thoughts Podcast explores the mental side of sport — for athletes, by an athlete.
Each episode dives into performance anxiety, injury recovery, identity loss, and the emotional toll of training and competition. You’ll hear conversations with endurance athletes, coaches, and experts on what it really takes to stay mentally strong when the stakes are high.
The blog features podcast recaps, mindset strategies, and tools to help athletes sharpen their focus, build resilience, and reconnect with purpose — whether you’re toeing the line or coming back from a setback.
