On this episode of the Chapter Athletic Running Podcast, we talk with sports psychologist and endurance athlete Nathaniel Wells about the psychological side of racing — from race day prep to performance under pressure, and what happens emotionally after the race is over.

We dig into:

• Pre-race mental strategies

• Performing when it counts

• Managing post-race comedowns

• The psychology of winning, and how to bounce back from loss

If you're interested in the mind-body connection and how psychology impacts endurance performance, this episode is packed with valuable insight.

The Chapter Athletic Running Podcast is back for another episode! This week, Zoe, Laz, and Darcy tackle the biggest headlines and running culture topics.

• First, we dissect the brutal Barkley Marathon 2025 where, shockingly, NO ONE crossed the finish line! What made it so impossible this year?
• Then, we're challenging the "grind" mentality in running. Is pushing harder always better? We discuss the importance of rest, recovery, and listening to your body. It's time to de-influence the pressure to constantly "carry the logs" and embrace a more balanced approach.
• Plus, we briefly touch on hydration strategies for dry vs. humid heat and a few silly tangents!

Listen now for running news, training insights, and a healthy dose of running realness.
