I’m joined by high-performance running coach, mental performance coach, endurance athlete, and author Brant Stachel.
Brant’s new book, Fast and Free: Mindset Training for Endurance Athletes, explores what it really means to train your mind with the same intention and structure as your body — without losing the joy that brought you to the sport in the first place.
We talk about managing nerves and pressure, building confidence over time, and navigating those inevitable moments in training and racing when things start to feel hard or uncertain. Brant shares practical tools, real-world examples, and insights from his work with endurance athletes across all levels, offering a grounded, sustainable approach to mental performance.
Whether you’re chasing a personal best, working through setbacks, or simply looking to show up more calmly and confidently in your running, this conversation will give you plenty to reflect on — and apply.
