Plan Description
“Mental toughness isn’t one skill; it’s many skills.
And you aren’t born with it — you work for it.”
– Carrie Jackson
Sharpen Your Mindset Before Race Day
THIS PLAN IS FREE WITH THE COUPON CODE: 8020MINDSET
This 4-week plug-and-play mental training plan helps endurance athletes strengthen mindset in the final month before race day. Whether you’re a first-timer or a veteran, it fits seamlessly into your TrainingPeaks program so you train your mental game with the same purpose as your physical prep.
Why a Mental Plan?
Athletes know mindset matters but often don’t know how to train it. Confidence isn’t fixed—it’s a skill you can build. This plan is based on the proven methods from Carrie Jackson’s full course, Training the Mental Game, which teaches endurance athletes how to develop focus, confidence, and resilience under pressure. Use this free plan as your introduction to the same framework that has helped thousands of athletes perform their best when it matters most.
What’s Inside
Each week (about 1 hour total) includes four core drills to sharpen your race-day mindset:
- Anchor Drills – Touchstone exercises to keep your mindset steady.
- Self-Talk Drills – Train the voice in your head to coach you with focus and confidence.
- Confidence Drills – Build an evidence bank to trust yourself on race day.
- Reflection Drills – Deepen awareness, reconnect with motivation, and reinforce belief.
Who Is This Plan For?
Athletes of all levels who want to sharpen mindset, boost confidence, and perform at their best when it matters most. Just as physical training strengthens your body, this plan trains your mind with simple, actionable exercises that turn preparation into performance.
