TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) β€” In this week’s episode of Run for Fun, we focus on race anxiety. Now that it’s starting to cool off some, we get into “race season,” and many people will lace up their shoes and line up to start a race. In the weeks and months before the race, people put in time and effort to prepare, and as race day nears, the jitters may increase. How do I know if I am ready? What if I get sick or injured now? Questions like these can cause race anxiety.

  1. Before races i'll do some mindfulness meditation which helps, actually I'll do it while running also. Books like "30 Days to Reduce Anxiety" by Harper Daniels teach good mindfulness exercises to try.
