running training mental hacks
Apr. 20th, 2022 07:48 pmduring my run today, I decided to try to bump up the speed just a little on the last lap, even though I felt totally awful.
Resorted to Daft Punk. For the first half of the lap, I was just saying to myself, Harder. Harder. Harder. Harder. Faster. Faster. Faster. Faster. Better. Better. Better. Better. Stronger. Stronger. Stronger. Stronger.
By the time I was on the straightaway, I was full on "Work it Harder Make it Faster Do it Better Makes us Stronger" lol omg I crack myself up. Whatever works, right?
I never run with music or ear buds. This is not something I've ever done skating, either. I enjoy listening to music in a gym or from the outside in some way, but not music in my ears. I find it uncomfortable. This might be due to my hypersensitive hearing? (I had it tested once. I have the hearing of a six year old.)
