Summary: <p>The new Mastering 40 episode is here and it details some major variances in performance and mindset. First, Adrienne Langelier, my sport psychologist, and I talk through a recent poor performance in a 10k workout that was a complete mental failure. From there we discuss how I should mentally plan out to my 5k race effort (a model that worked exceedingly well). Finally, we take a deep dive in my lifelong habit that has been killing my potential. This is a topic that we will talk about several times over the coming year.</p> <p>In the second half of the episode coach James McKirdy breaks down my first race of the season - a virtual 5k. This was the first time I have ever successfully completed a coach's pre-race plan and the first time I have negative split a race. Progress!</p> <p><br></p> <p>Thank you to the Mastering 40 partners:</p> <p>- Supplements/Protein: <a href="https://www.previnex.com/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Previnex</a> - code: RUNNER15 for 15% off</p> <p>- Health Analysis: <a href="https://shareasale.com/u.cfm?afftrack=&d=675734&m=94578&u=2509951" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">InsideTracker</a> - code: INSIDETWENTY for 20% off</p> <p>- Attire: <a href="https://www.tracksmith.com/ramblingrunner" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Tracksmith</a> - code RAMBLINGRUNNER for 15% off first purchase over $75</p> <p><br></p> <p>Follow Matt:</p> <p>Instagram - <a href="http://www.instagram.com/rambling_runner" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@rambling_runner</a></p> <p>Twitter - <a href="http://www.twitter.com/rambling_runner" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@rambling_runner</a></p> <p>Get exclusive podcasts with popular past guests by joining our <a href="https://www.patreon.com/ramblingrunner" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Patreon</a> community at <a href="https://www.patreon.com/ramblingrunner" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.patreon.com/ramblingrunner</a>.</p> <p><a href="https://www.theramblingrunner.com/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.theramblingrunner.com</a></p> <p><br></p>
