EP 03 - Olympic Dream w/ 2x Olympian Ashleigh Nelson
Manage episode 283634729 series 2866550
I wanted to talk with Ashleigh because as an elite athlete; she has experienced both the highest highs and the lowest lows. After a 40 year dry spell, she was the first British woman to win a European medal in the individual 100m in 2014. But on the other hand, she had to stand on the sidelines at the 2016 Rio Olympics and 2017 London World Championships after an injury prevented her from competing.
We'll talk about:
* the elite athlete mindset, and how compartmentalisation is key to it
* what motivates her to keep going every single day
* her approach to the Olympics this year in Tokyo and how she's preparing to leave her competition behind in a cloud of dust
