Whilst one is only a short distance away in Ascot (Peter Kennedy), the other now resides in Norfolk. Both have recently taken on interesting, and lengthy, challenges, one on foot and the other on water. I’m always keen to hear about what those of you who no longer live locally but retain club links are doing, so please do get in touch if you have a story to share. May I also remind you that membership renewal is due. See the Stragglers homepage for everything you need to know about all that. This issue is early for the month so as to include a list of people running the London Marathon, so those of us planning to go and support know who to look out for. The next Stragmag will be with you at the end of May. Deadline for contributions is Thursday May 26. Thank you to everyone who has sent me stuff for this issue and to Dave and Steve for their behind-the-scenes assistance.

  • EXPLORING PSYCHOLOGICAL STRATEGIES to MANAGE FATIGUE in ENDURANCE SPORT by D. T. ROBINSON Research Project Submitted to Univers
    EXPLORING PSYCHOLOGICAL STRATEGIES TO MANAGE FATIGUE IN ENDURANCE SPORT BY D. T. ROBINSON Research Project SubmitteD to University of Wolverhampton November 2020 EXPLORING PSYCHOLOGICAL STRATEGIES TO MANAGE FATIGUE IN ENDURANCE SPORT BY D. T. ROBINSON University of Wolverhampton November 2020 2 Acknowledgements First and foremost, I must thank my supervisors Professor Andrew Lane, Dr Ross Cloak and Dr Martin Yelling for their unwavering support and patience throughout the process. I am grateful for not only their willingness to work with someone from an unconventional educational background but also for their empathy at difficult moments. Each of the main studies herein was written with other authors and so in addition to my supervisors I must thank Dr Ian Lahart, Dr Alexander Latinjak, Bernat de las Heras, Arnau Sacot, Stuart Holliday and Andrew Lane for their expertise and generosity. Applied settings are central to this work and many coaches and athletes have been generous with their time and expertise. Representatives from British Athletics and England Athletics have been hugely supportive and in particular Nick Anderson has been kind enough to share a huge amount of expertise. Similarly coaches from my own athletics club BRAT and others have helped to provide invaluable practical context for the work. 3 Abstract The purpose of the study is to examine psychological interventions and their contextual validity in endurance-based sporting events. Over the course of three studies the work examines interventions for coping with fatigue in both laboratory and real-world settings. Participants range in ability and experience from novice to sub-elite competitors. The two cycling-based studies explore pacing strategies and goal directed self-talk.
