Description

Drawing on emerging exercise science, this guide presents a brain-centered approach to running performance, arguing that the mind plays a central role in determining how far and how fast an athlete can go. Matt Fitzgerald explains complex research in accessible terms and offers practical strategies to help runners of all levels manage perceived effort, strengthen mental resilience, and train more effectively. Alongside scientific insight, vivid stories of elite athletes illustrate how confidence, focus, motivation, and emotional response can influence success or failure. The result is an engaging resource for runners seeking to move beyond purely physical training and unlock greater performance through mental fitness.
