Synopsis

"Marathon Mindset Tools" revolutionizes distance running training by addressing the crucial psychological aspects that can influence up to 40% of race-day performance. This comprehensive guide uniquely bridges the gap between physical and mental conditioning, presenting a research-backed approach that integrates sports psychology with traditional training methods.

 
Through a blend of cutting-edge sports science and practical techniques, the book demonstrates how mental resilience and physical capabilities must develop in tandem for optimal marathon performance. The book progresses logically through three main sections, beginning with fundamental running mechanics and physiological principles, including VO2 max development and proper form. It then delves into specific mental conditioning techniques such as visualization and mindfulness practices tailored for endurance athletes.

 
The final section synthesizes these elements into actionable training plans and race-day strategies, supported by case studies from professional runners and data from elite training centers. What sets this guide apart is its multidisciplinary approach, combining insights from sports psychology, exercise physiology, and stress management. Rather than treating physical and mental training as separate components, it presents an integrated methodology backed by research from prestigious institutions like the University of Colorado's Running Laboratory.

 
For serious amateur runners and coaches who have hit plateaus with traditional training methods, the book offers practical tools, including detailed training logs and mental preparation checklists, to help systematically implement these evidence-based principles into their training routines.

Hidden Mountains - Survival and...

Michael Wejchert

The story of a climbing adventure gone wrong in a remote Alaskan mountain range, the impossible rescue attempt that followed, and the fraught cost of survival
In 2018, two couples set out on a climbing expedition to Alaska’s Hidden Mountains, one of the last wild ranges in North America. A rarity in modern climbing, the peaks were nearly unexplored and untouched, a place where few people had ever visited and granite spires still awaited first ascents. Inspired by generations of daring alpinists before them, the four climbers were now compelled to strike out into uncharted territory themselves.
This trip to the Hidden Mountains would be the culmination of years of climbing together, promising to test the foursome’s skill and dedication to the sport. But as the climbers would soon discover, no amount of preparation can account for the unknowns of true wilderness. As they neared the top of an unclimbed peak, rockfall grievously injured one of the climbers while he was out of sight, leaving him stranded and in critical condition.
Over the course of the next nine hours, the other three climbers worked to reach their companion. What followed was a pulse-pounding rescue attempt by Alaska’s elite Pararescuers in one of the most remote regions in the country—raising difficult questions about wilderness accessibility, technology’s role in outdoor adventure, and what it means to weigh risk against the siren song of the mountains.
With visceral prose, Michael Wejchert recounts the group’s rescue and traces the scars left in the wake of life-altering trauma. Weaving the history and evolution of rock and alpine climbing with outside tales of loss and survival in the mountains, Wejchert gives a full picture of the reward—and cost—of following your passions in the outdoors.
