Put to the Test
It’s almost inevitable for athletes to encounter difficulties during a run.

Sport, at the top level, is all about controlling the controllables. The best athletes in any discipline have mastery over as many of the different elements that make up their sport as possible. Perfect preparation, rest, rituals, kit choices, psychology, psyching out opponents… it’s all a game of bending reality to the athlete’s will.
