How to mentally prepare for a race with mindset coach Trang Nguyen

How to mentally prepare for a race with mindset coach Trang Nguyen

You've done the training, you’ve dialed in your nutrition, but what about your mind?

When it comes to racing, there is a lot you can do to prepare your body physically to perform at the best of your ability on the day. But if you haven’t got your mind switched on, then your race may not result in what you’re truly capable of.

To help give you some practical strategies to mentally prepare yourself for your next triathlon race, I asked mindset and performance coach Trang Nguyen to join me on the podcast. She is also a qualified physiotherapist, Strength and Conditioning Coach, Running Coach and Personal trainer - talk about a high achiever!

She walks you through strategies to visualise your race goals, quieten down those pre-race nerves and ways to help you through a dark, pain cave hole during a race.

So you can be confident you’ve given it your all, and achieved what you set out to on race day. Whether that’s standing on the top of the podium, hitting a new personal best or reaching the finish line of your very first race!
