  1. I like the visuals you give for working on form! i am definitely going to try these out! mantras are HUGE to me and definitely keep me going. I really just try to imagine myself starting easy and then slowly but surely putting one foot in front of the other until i make it to the end. its like the only thing i am focused on is that step or that mile. this has really helped me not to get overwhelmed by the total mileage/distance etc for that day!

  2. I hat e when I use the “this one goes to 11” quote and it flies right by. Same with pretty much every caddy shack or stripes quote I try to use.

    Cool mantras. Some little reminders I try to use are;
    imagine a big magnet at the finish, and in your chest is a special kind of metal, and you are being tugged to the finish line.

    Another I try to do is to relax and slack my jaw. I actually relax it and swing it around. Someone told me once that this is a great way to make all your muscles below a little more loose and not so uptight.

  3. As always, I love this. A crazy awesome mix of tips and story.

    Love the pocket picking tip; I’ll remember that one!

    My favorite at the moment is ‘I don’t stop when I’m tired, I stop when I’m done’. I alway pull it out when I wan to quit.
