    Makes sense really - the ability to hang on during the hurt is something that so many people talk about lacking. Cross country racing, long tempos, short, sharp reps and hill reps are all ways that I've used to tap into the hurt locker a bit more over the winter months.
    Now if I could get myself a bravery tablet before each race I'd be sorted !

    It's why there will never ever be the prefect middle/long distance race....even the perfect endurance sprint race. 400 and 800

    Maybe throw the 200 in as well. That is paced.

    Matt Fitzgerald's book 'How Bad Do You Want It ?' is an interesting read. He uses anecdotes from champions in various endurance sports to look into the psychology of running and expands on the article linked by the OP. It's not overly scientific but does refer to some published papers.
