Episode 163: Sports Psychologist, Dr. Justin Ross Is Back to Help You Maximize Your Running Potential with Joy!

Run Farther & Faster — The Podcast with Coaches Lisa Levin and Julie Sapper

Denver-based clinical sports psychologist, Dr. Justin Ross, helps athletes all over the world develop high skills aimed at peak performance. In this episode, Justin provides tips for scenarios that runners experience while training and racing, including overcoming pre-race and performance anxiety, negative thoughts after a workout or race, fear of failure, and anxiety after injury. Justin, who is a 2:57 marathoner, talks about his Boston Marathon experiences and how he overcomes his own challenges while racing, or, in his words, "eventing." Recently, Justin launched the first embedded Performance Psychology Training Plan in Training Peaks, which is a training program that athletes can download to build a stronger mental muscle with daily five-minute exercises.
