Description
Steve Backley is one of the best javelin throwers ever. He's a 4-time European champion, 3-time Olympic medalist, former world record holder and current British record holder in the javelin (91.46m).
In this episode, Steve tells us how he got started with track & field, how he used visualization to train mentally as he was dealing with an injury, but also about the “growth mindset” he finds so important.
You’re listening to the original interview in English. The interview is also available dubbed in French for those of you who understand French better than English.
