The faster I run the faster I’m done! That is my mantra when doing running workouts and racing. Running workouts with a time duration set (like this one) I just switch my mindset to, the faster I run the more rounds I do the more conditioning I get. Endurance is an 80 percent mental game and 20 percent physical. People tell me all the time “Oh, I can’t do that because I’m not a runner.” Hell, I was one of them! If you keep telling yourself you’re not a runner you believe it and then never run. Get that out of your head, lace up and just run. Maybe you just go 1 mile or maybe you run 10 miles. You will never know unless you set the excuses aside, get out of your own head and just do it!
