out-n-about
i didn’t roll out of bed this AM so i brought gear and ran with 3 other guys at lunch. we covered maybe a little more than 4 miles at 8:00 per mile pace. i didn’t get the chance to let my GPS watch "find itself" before heading out so i’m just guestimating.
i read an interesting article from Michael Johnson…who holds the WR for the 200 and 400…regarding Asafa Powell. the end of the article struck me…
Athletes’ actions will follow their thoughts, just like any other person’s.
If you think negatively you are likely to produce a negative action. If you think positively you have a better chance of producing a positive action.
If Asafa had a more positive and confident demeanour he may have produced a more positive result at those World Championships.
Here’s linkage so you can read the whole article entitled Asafa Powell is fastest – but not the best.
