Mastery. What does that encompass when it comes to our health, wellness & performance? How does mindset, consistency and growth affect it? What are the keys to making it a reality? In this discussion with renowned endurance sports author, coach and elite athlete, we’ll unpack the concept of mastery: how it's developed, what holds athletes back, and why the pursuit itself can be more fulfilling than the finish line. Whether you're a coach, an athlete, or simply someone striving to improve, this conversation will challenge and inspire you to think differently about progress. 

If you’ve been tuning into The Coaching Lab podcast for long, you know Matt is one of a small handful of returning guests for a reason. Matt is the author of numerous bestselling books on running, training, and the mental side of sport, including his latest work, Chasing Mastery.

Get ready for a deep dive into what it really takes to pursue mastery in sport and life.
