Come for the community run, enjoy some snacks and giveaways and stay for Mental Performance Chat with Scott Donald - Certified Mental Performance Consultant (CMPC). Scott Donald is a CMPC (AASP/CSPA) with nine years of experience across 20+ sports. He understands the inner negotiation firsthand: he's a current ultrarunner and former varsity runner in cross-country and track. Whether you're chasing a PB, your first finish line, or a challenge that scares you a little, Scott helps build a mind that works for you rather than against you. Build mental skills for managing pain, self-doubt, anxiety and overthinking so you can lock in and run the race you trained for. |
