Irishman Running Abroad : “Resetting Goals: Sonia O'Sullivan's Guide To Making Difficult Targets Seem Less Far Away" An Irishman Abroad
-
- Personal Journals
Getting ahead of the January blue is essential. It doesn’t matter who you are, January can be a tough month. Sonia opens up about her difficult times during this period and shares the secrets she’s discovered in refocusing her targets to make the end goal “near” rather than “far away”. If the first few months of this series were about establishing a solid foundation, Sonia walks Jarlath through her theory on building the best training bracket in the absence of actual races. She created a very unusual goal for him and the listeners that will allow everyone to get excited about the dark month ahead. We hear how “the temptation to look in the oven” can spoil the reward at the end of a training framework. Jar gives a shout to a loyal listener and next week’s cookery episode gets a preview.
