About this episode
The episode explores the significant impact of mindset and expectations on physiological experiences for runners.
Just how important are mindset and expectations on physiological experiences? Research has suggested that the connection is so significant that a person can literally create a physiological response to something that is not at all present. We kick off the 7th year of AtoZrunning by taking a closer look at the connection between the mind and body and what that means for runners. Learn more about our coaching services at atozrunning.com
