So I would say, my body was made to run. I can do this. I really like running. " 12:45 - "the biggest takeaway of mental fitness, whether you're an athlete or not, is the fact that it increases the likelihood that you're going to make the best decisions under pressure. " 21:26 - "...if you think about it, when you train for a race, you train ahead of time. So on the day, you are ready physically. So mentally is the same way. We can be proactive with our mental fitness." 24:50 - "You know, all of the athletes that are able to endure some of the hardest competition have a very strong mental fitness aspect in their workouts."
