In this episode of the Best Athletics Podcast, Nick Bester sits down with Robin Hughes, founder of Getahead an app that provides Mental Training Plans, to explore the often-overlooked side of performance - your mindset.

They dig into questions every runner has wondered:

  • Is there such a thing as mental talent, just like physical talent?
  • Can you actually train your mental strength to push further?
  • How much untapped potential lies in your mind?
  • What’s the ideal pre-race mindset?
  • Are some people simply untrainable from a mental perspective?

Whether you’re chasing PBs or just starting out, Robin shares practical insights to help you level up your mental game.
