Welcome to episode 297 of the Löw Tide Böyz - A Swimrun Podcast! We’ve got a great one for everyone this week. Joining us to discuss mental strategies for when you’re on the other side of the mountain top–such as having just raced ÖTILLÖ, The Swimrun World Championship–is sports psychologist and extreme endurance athlete Dr. Erin Ayala . In this conversation she shares her wealth of knowledge from her therapy and coaching practice on how to deal with post-race blues, DNFs, and being in the moment. We recorded this conversation before our trip to Sweden with the hope that everyone that raced ÖTILLÖ (or is thinking about racing an epic A-race) will find it to be a useful resource. Enjoy! ~~~ That’s it for this week’s show.
