The Competitive Edge explores the psychological factors that influence a distance runner's performance. The book is intended to help competitive runners get a handle on the 'inner game' of their sport and maximize their running potential. It covers such topics as: - the challenges posed by the psychological aspects of distance racing - the use of relaxation techniques to calm the body - the use of mental rehearsal to visualize and prepare for races - the care and feeding of a runner's 'emotional battery' - a discussion with top runners about the psychology of racing - the formulation of a mental training program
