Reviews
"Whenever we are asked about the most important attributes for an athlete, we respond with one word: 'belief.' In Mental Training for Ultrarunning , Addie Bracy shows how belief is a complex skill that can be developed by anyone who wants to unleash the boss athlete within them. This book will revolutionize how people think about training, and it's going to help create badass life superstars too. We are going to open it so many times and dog-ear so many pages that we just hope the book's binding believes in itself as strongly as the athletes who read it will learn to believe in themselves." --Megan Roche, MD, and David Roche, Authors of The Happy Runner and Coaches at Some Work, All Play "Though ultrarunning is defined by extreme physical distances, it is universally considered to be primarily a mental challenge. There is no better guide to preparing for the mental challenges of ultrarunning than Addie Bracy. She is the real deal on all levels: as an elite ultrarunner, coach, and mental performance consultant." --Mark Aoyagi, PhD, Codirector of Sport and Performance Psychology and Professor at the University of Denver " Mental Training for Ultrarunning is an essential read that allows you to understand the complexity of racing and competing in a sport that requires the utmost physical and mental preparedness. You also get a glimpse into the minds of the best ultrarunners in the sport and how they overcome adversity." --Hillary Allen, Professional Trail Ultrarunner, Running Coach, Speaker, and Author, "Whenever we are asked about the most important attributes for an athlete, we respond with one word: 'belief.'
