Book excerpt: Travel with Olympic gold medalist Jessie Diggins on her compelling journey from America’s heartland to international sports history, navigating challenges and triumphs with rugged grit and a splash of glitter Pyeongchang, February 21, 2018. In the nerve-racking final seconds of the women’s team sprint freestyle race, Jessie Diggins dug deep. Blowing past two of the best sprinters in the world, she stretched her ski boot across the finish line and lunged straight into Olympic immortality: the first ever cross-country skiing gold medal for the United States at the Winter Games. The 26-year-old Diggins, a four-time World Championship medalist, was literally a world away from the small town of Afton, Minnesota, where she first strapped on skis. Yet, for all her history-making achievements, she had never strayed far from the scrappy 12-year-old who had insisted on portaging her own canoe through the wilderness, yelling happily under the unwieldy weight on her shoulders: “Look! I’m doing it!” In Brave Enough, Jessie Diggins reveals the true story of her journey from the American Midwest into sports history. With candid charm and characteristic grit, she connects the dots from her free-spirited upbringing in the woods of Minnesota to racing in the bright spotlights of the Olympics. Going far beyond stories of races and ribbons, she describes the challenges and frustrations of becoming a serious athlete; learning how to push through and beyond physical and psychological limits; and the intense pressure of competing at the highest levels. She openly shares her harrowing struggle with bulimia, recounting both the adversity and how she healed from it in order to bring hope and understanding to others experiencing eating disorders. Between thrilling accounts of moments of triumph, Diggins shows the determination it takes to get there—the struggles and disappointments, the fun and the hard work, and the importance of listening to that small, fierce voice: I can do it. I am brave enough.

Download or read book Analysis of a Periodized Mental Skills Delivery Model for the USSA Cross-country National Development Ski Team written by Shannon Von Guenthner and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Mental skills training (MST) programs have received considerable support for effectiveness in enhancing sport performance in athletes (Greenspan & Feltz, 1989; Vealey, 1994). A consensus among the literature indicates the need for more controlled studies investigating different and more systematic methods of implementation, especially the use of idiographic designs (Weinberg & Gould, 1999; Weinberg & Williams, 1993; Balague, 1999). The primary purpose of this study was to design, implement, and evaluate a mental skills training program for elite cross-country ski racers in a case-by case fashion. This study also serves as an empirical test of a recently developed method of program delivery by utilizing mental skills "menu" approach (Hammermeister, 2000) within a periodized format of mental training (Burton, Hammermeister, Holliday, & Naylor, 2000). This delivery model was also selected to address a request from the United States Ski and Snowboard Association (USSA) for more open coach/consultant communication and for evidence of measurable effects from psychology services. Six members of the USSA Cross Country National Developmental Group (NDG) participated in a comprehensive mental skills intervention. This intervention included an 8 week educational phase followed by the development and implementation of a periodized individual mental training program based on the unique needs of each athlete (Hammermeister, 2000). Pre- and post-intervention testing utilizing the Test of Performance Strategies (TOPS; Thomas, Murphy & Hardy, 1999), the Trait Sport Confidence Inventory (TSCI; Vealy, 1986), the Competitive Orientation Inventory (COl: Vealy, 1986), and the Sport Anxiety Scale (SAS; Smith, Smoll, & Schultz, 1990) were used to evaluate program effectiveness. Single-subject pre and post-test analysis of treatment effect for each individual indicated enhanced psychological skill knowledge and usage across all athletes. Increases in both task and ego motivation were found to be a trend among the athletes. Improved sport confidence and decreases in the somatic, cognitive, and concentration disruption components of the SAS were found in five of the six athletes. Furthermore, feedback given by the NDG athletes and coaches indicated a preference for this type of delivery format. These positive results provide evidence for the usefulness of a psychological skills menu approach to a periodized model of mental training for elite ski racers"--Document.

Book excerpt: Wild Shot is outwardly about the external physical demands of the winter sports of Cross Country Skiing and Biathlon. Author Andy Liebner discovers that sport is not just about training and competition; it’s a metaphor for a deeper aspect of life. Sport is a quest! To rise to the top requires a heroic journey to encounter and overcome external and internal barriers, and Andy runs into far more of them than you might think possible. The barriers are relentless. But he learns that his biggest enemy is inside his head and if he masters his fears then he wins. “Ever wondered what it would be like to compete at the highest levels of a sport? Now, image doing it without a support system of coaches, money, or a team. This is Andy Liebner’s story of how a young guy with a big dream decided to go it on his own against the biggest stars on the skiing and biathlon world circuit. While biathlon is not a sport most Americans recognize, the Europeans pour money into training facilities, gear and athlete development. With none of these advantages Andy sets out to train himself and take it to the Europeans on their home turf. His inspiration is both familiar and unique. While mental and physical training are key for many types of endurance sports, the shooting and skiing skills of Biathlon are special. The competitions are bare-knuckle shoot outs in some of the toughest weather and high mountain terrain. Andy’s journey is not an easy one and the challenges off the course often seem bigger than those encountered in competition. This exciting story couples the high speed twists and turns of a ski run with the human roller coaster of emotion.” – Janet Conway PhD.
