Welcome to the Runners Connect, Run to the Top Podcast, where it's all about learning from the best minds in the sport

so you can train smarter, stay healthy, and run faster now.

And now your host, Tina Muir.

Hello, this is Tina Muir and I would like to welcome you to another episode of the

Run to the Top podcast brought to you by Runners Connect.

Thank you for being here today.

I am honored that you have chosen to spend your time with myself and my guest today.

As runners, we love to see how running intersects with our other passions and areas of interest.

But have you ever considered how your training could be making you a mentally stronger person?

Who is better prepared for the challenges in life that we do not expect.

We choose to put ourselves through the discomfort of training, but often our biggest obstacles

are those aspects of our lives that we are not training for. I had never really

thought of it that way and I'm guessing many of you have not either but if you

think about it for a moment when you complete a workout that you're struggling in

or you overcome an injury and get into great shape,

don't you feel like you could take on anything?

We often don't think about how it impacts the rest of our lives, but it does.

We joke that we are a different breed but maybe there is something

different about us and not in a bad way. If we can just spin our perspective a little we can

become unstoppable in every area of our lives. So my guest today is

Travis Macy. Travis is the author of the upcoming book The Ultra Mindset

and Endurance Champions Eight Court Principles for success in business, sports, and life.
