Episode 28. The Power of the S.O.S. and Race Reports!

<p>In this episode, host Erin Quinn takes you inside her fourth finish of the legendary Survival of the Shawangunk&#39;s (SOS )— a grueling triathlon combining a 30-mile road bike, three lake swims, and nearly 20 miles of trail running through the mountains of New Paltz, NY. Erin shares an honest, in-the-moment race recap, including an unexpected battle with IT band and hip flexor pain from mile one, and the mental tools she used to keep moving forward anyway.</p><p>Beyond the race story, Erin breaks down why keeping a training log and writing a post-race report is one of the most valuable tools in an endurance athlete&#39;s toolbox. She walks through how to set both performance and process goals, how to reframe negative thoughts mid-race, and how rooting for other runners can lift your own performance. Whether you&#39;re prepping for your first ultramarathon or your fiftieth, this episode is packed with real, practical mindset strategies for showing up on race day — messy training and all.</p><p>For 1:1 coaching inquiries you can reach out to Erin via email erinmaryquinn@gmail.com or on her website erinmaryquinn.com </p><p>For a link to her Race Report Forms she provides to athletes just click here:</p><p><br></p><p>https://docs.google.com/document/d/1BQB_k4QIzmOL3HzjxqRiIiCGcgZPh3U2thF-qGCnuAM/edit?usp=sharing</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p>
