In a study of Olympic athletes, researchers observed that of the three factors of readiness - mental, physical and technical - the only statistically significant predictor of final Olympic ranking was mental readiness.
As much as they are a physical test, endurance sports and business are also mental challenges as you experience discomfort, obstacles, disappointment and anxiety during your training and key events. Although you may not be an Olympic athlete, you can set yourself up for better results… Show more by properly preparing your mind just as you would train your body.
Training the Competitor Within for Peak Performance is the first class of its kind to blend the practical wisdom of the presenters' 30+ years of experience in endurance sports and business with research to give you the tools you can practice and apply to your performance to the next level.  This class is designed for the endurance sports athlete who desires to improve performance and the business professional who desires to excel. Coaches and other fitness professionals are encouraged to attend, too.
Attendance is limited to  only 20 participants  so sign up now to reserve your spot!  Please see below for additional information as well as FAQs .
