Fiona Hayvice - Mindset, Mantra's, & How Mom is Always With Her—the Flying Fi | RunChats Ep.32

I'm stoked to have my 1st KIWI guest on the pod, the Flying Fi, Fiona Hayvice! Fiona has a wonderful accent and I love the energy, passion, and enthusiasm she has for life. She’s been killing it at both the National and International level and it was a treat to take a deep dive on all things Ultra. Some of the things we discussed include: -Growing up on a farm, her love for exploring, adventure travel, and seeing the world on two feet -Where her fire, drive, and competitiveness come from -Running with her son, Spike, in the buggy—which built a bond and made her stronger -How Mom is with her on every step of her runs -How her mom’s organizational skills helped her become a good problem solver when races go sideways -Patience, drawing on previous experience to succeed -Mindset, mantras—"make Mom proud" -Fueling, nutrition, and race planning “Ultra is a very mental sport. The mind is the most powerful of the tools that we’ve got. Be confident in its power and use it. Sometimes we have to trick the mind” This is one of many great insights Fiona shared. She’s inspiring  and empowering adults on their running journeys and is active with the Go Run Girls Coaching Team and finds it deeply fulfilling. I'm inspired by her story and hope you all enjoy this convo as much as we did. If you do, it would mean the world to me if you would rate the podcast or write a review and share feedback wherever you get your podcast groove on.
