Attentional control - focus

Lance Watson's thoughts on preparing to race:


Your goal for any key race, regardless of fitness level, should be to remain as "on-task" as possible all day long. This is no small feat in Ironman or endurance events. It's a long time to be out there! In training and racing, many top professionals practice focusing on "what is happening right now". Review the course logistics and run the event through your mind, one step at a time. Think about what you want to focus on throughout.
