18. The Power of Momentum: Why One Decision Doesn’t Define Your Race
Description
Are you scared that your entire race will come down to one defining moment? That you’ll be exhausted or in pain, and you’ll fall apart and quit? This fear is common among ultra runners, but it’s based on a fundamental misunderstanding of what an ultra truly is. In this episode, we’ll explore why the "make-or-break" moment isn’t as dramatic as it seems and how your choices throughout the race build momentum. By shifting your focus from a single decision to the thousands of successful choices you’ve already made, you’ll approach your race with more confidence.
