  • Rewire Your Self-Talk, Rewire Your Performance
    Mar 31 2025

    Send me a Text Message

    Welcome to another episode of The Triathlon Mental Performance Podcast.

    In this episode, I talk about the single most overlooked performance tool in your training and races, the voice in your head.

    That voice can either get you through the tough moments, or drag you down before the real effort even begins. And most athletes? They’ve never actually trained it.

    I’ll explain what self-talk really is, why it matters, and how to start using it effectively, not as hype, but as a tool that directly shapes how you move, how you feel, and how you hold form under pressure.

    You’ll learn:

    • What self-talk actually is and how it works under effort
    • A simple 3-step framework to train your inner voice
    • Real-world examples of self-talk during key sessions
    • The science behind why it helps you manage fatigue and execute under pressure

    This episode is for any triathlete, whether you’re new to racing or already competing at a high level, who wants to build a more resilient mind and a more composed race day.

    Please feel free to share this episode with a friend or teammate who could benefit from training their self-talk more deliberately.

    If you have any questions or want to chat about how we can work together, you’re welcome to email me at:

  • Pre-Race Nerves: How to Stay Calm & Focused on Race Day
    Mar 14 2025

    Welcome to another episode of the Triathlon Mental Performance Podcast.

    In this episode, I talk about pre-race nerves and how to turn them into an advantage rather than something that holds you back.

    Please feel free to share this episode with a friend or teammate who experiences nerves before a race and wants to feel more in control on race day.

    This is one of the most common mental challenges that triathletes experience, and I’m known for helping athletes stay calm and mentally sharp heading into their race.

    Welcome to another episode of the Triathlon Mental Performance Podcast.

    In this episode, I talk about how to prevent panic in open water.

    Please also feel free to share this episode with a friend or teammate that experiences panic in open water and typically on race day.

    This is one of the most common challenges that Age Groupers experience and I'm known for taking you as athletes through a short program to prevent this.

    If you have any questions about this episode or would like to chat about how we can work together, you are welcome to email me at neil@neiledge.com

    I've taken athletes through a 3 call program to completely prevent this from happening.

    I've also created a 1 hour video PowerPoint presentation, for those athletes who are not able to work with me for financially reasons (I appreciate how expensive this sport is hence creating this video PowerPoint.

    Click here to watch the free trailer video where I share details of what I talk about on the video PowerPoint.
