Hi all you runners! My name is Dr. Kay Porter, and I am your new blogger for all things about motivation, mental training and finding your mental and psychological edge in your racing and training. I’m the author of an applied sport psychology book, THE MENTAL ATHLETE, (Human
Kinetics, 2003), which is available at your favorite bookstore or amazon.com. My website is: www.thementalathlete.com.

In the next few weeks and months, I’ll be putting out podcasts of guided visualizations for racing the 800m, 1500m, 3000m, 5000m, 10,000m and the marathon. Right now, we are busy putting these online for runners to download into their ipods or mp3s!

I look forward to hearing from you and want to help you have fun in your racing and to improve your PR! So stay tuned and look for sport psychology/mental training tips coming your way!
Kay
