How do you handle running in adverse weather conditions?
I handle running races in adverse weather conditions by trying not to focus on it. I believe that if you pay too much attention to the weather, it will affect your race more than it should. I also make an effort to train in different weather conditions so I can become accustomed to running in various adverse environments.
What’s your strategy for tackling hills during a race?
When I’m running hills in a race, I try to maintain the same breathing pattern and speed as I go uphill. I make a conscious effort not to slow down at the top of the hill, but instead, I aim to pick up my pace.
What role does visualization play in your race preparation?
Visualization plays a major role in my pre-race preparation. I always imagine myself running the course, navigating the turns, climbing the hills, and crossing the finish line. Using visualization helps me feel even more prepared to run my race.
