Welcome back to The Marathon Podcast. On this episode we have Dani Barrett on. This is how she describes herself as a racer:

Just like any runner, I have good and bad races, but the common denominator is that I bring an attitude of seizing the opportunity to race to every start line. Remembering that racing is the fun part is a key to success, and I’ve had my best days when I enter with this mindset! Some racing highlights for me have been the NCAA Track and Field National Championships, where I finished as the 11th-fastest 10k runner in the nation with a time of 33:07 and became a Division 1 All-American. I also ran my first marathon in December of 2025 and qualified for the Olympic Trials in 2:34. I can’t wait to run another one! Some other highlights have been becoming an NCAA Conference Champion in the 5k and 10k, and a collegiate team title in cross country.

In all my best races, I used tools I learned working with a Sports Psychologist that I want to share with the athletes I coach! If you want to learn all of the mental preparation, visualization, race planning, and journaling techniques that have gotten me these results, let’s work together!
