This new program for runners is designed to empower your running experience and switches your mindset to a positive focus, and gets you ready for an amazing race, whichever race you have chosen to run!

The Positive Race Mindset Program contains 21 daily mindset activities that have been carefully designed to instill a positive mindset and set you up for a great race at your chosen race!

Why a positive mindset?

Research has shown that pessimism ranks as the runners' top mental roadblock. Negativity, whether it's worry or doubt, often leads to self-defeating behaviors including slowing down, cutting a workout short, or dropping out of a race. Our program provides a 21 day positive mental training program for your chosen race that will shift your mindset to support your race goals.

Sharing your experience

We also encourage you to share your positive experiences on the program with your fellow runners on the Facebook page for your chosen race.
