Trait #1- Resilience
Competitor magazine has an article discussing their 7 habits of mentally tough runners. This week I will put my spin on the 7 traits. Trait #1 is resilience. This year, I had a difficult race. The race itself was awesome, but it took a ton out of me. I struggled to reconcile the physical part of running again and my confidence was a little shaky. Interestingly enough, I had a 16 mile run the week after the difficult race. I ran the 16 extremely well. However, I had to resolve myself to putting the bad race behind me. It worked!!! Resilience is key. Tomorrow, I will talk about focus:)
