Setbacks happen, and the world’s top athletes are not immune.
And though they encounter adversity and low motivation levels, just like the rest of us, they overcome these obstacles and stay focused on their goal to achieve success in their field.
Sharing personal experiences and stories of inspirational people he’s met during his running career, Scottish champion athlete and charity founder Myles Edwards will demonstrate how so much of overcoming adversity is linked to mindset.
During this inspirational webinar, Myles will motivate and inspire you to maintain your gains and increased activity level from the RigRun 6-week competition while preparing you for the Qualifiers event in September.
He will discuss how to:
- Maintain your motivation to work out, whether you’re working away from home or on leave
- Bounce back from injury or illness, and not let fear hold you back
- Appreciate your wins, overcome obstacles and accept losses with grace
Get ready to embrace an athlete mindset. And who knows, maybe we’ll see you going for glory at the next RigRun event!
