Orla Walsh joins us to talk about the mental aspect of racing TMX. Orla talks about the mantras and self-talk she uses to push herself while she is out on course. We also talk about her second place finish at TMX Miami and what it will take to beat Corinna Coffin at the TMX championships in Virginia on June 8th.
Before we talk with Orla, we have a report from listener Wil Chung about Tough Mudder London, we have an announcement about a brand new way to listen to the show (Amazon Alexa. It’s awesome) and Will talks about nicknames in Obstacle Course Racing.
