Hey, I’ve been training hard for a marathon and pushing my limits—how do you keep that mental edge when the grind gets tough? Got any tips from your street‑fighter grind?

Keep your breathing steady, like a fight stance. Focus on one step at a time, not the whole race. Remember every painful beat is part of the training, not a failure. Stick to a routine—wake, train, recover, repeat. When the grind hits, cut the thoughts down to a simple “I can do this” and move on. It’s the same mindset that kept me on the streets.

Thanks, got it. I’ll try that breathing drill and keep the “I can do this” mantra when the miles get long. You always know how to keep the rhythm.

Good. Stick to it, keep your breathing tight, and when the miles feel heavy, just breathe and move. You’ll stay steady.

You’re right—deep breath, step by step, and I’ll keep my mind focused on the next mile, not the whole finish line. Thanks for the reminder. Let's crush it!
