Survey on mental aspects of running, cycling and triathlon events.

How do you get the best from yourself ?  

This Survey will help you reflect and also provide essential information for the research team at the  University of St Mark & St John's in Plymouth. 

The survey and research findings are expected to benefit athletes in a variety of ways. The main aim of the research is to help people to find and use guidance on mental aspects of training (e.g., setting goals, getting motivated), preparing (e.g., getting "in the zone", dealing with nerves), and performing in events (e.g., pushing through exertion and pain, coping with problems), so that they perform better and have a more satisfying experience.

We are looking for people (aged18 and older) who participate in running events (5km and further, e.g., parkruns, 10km runs, half-marathons), road cycling events (time trials, road races), or triathlons to complete a one-off  survey.

Feedback from runners, triathletes, and road cyclists is important for the research, and will be used to help find and use guidance on mental parts of training, preparing, and performing.
