Mrs PB is a keen Triathelete and Duathalete (Euro Age Group Medallist) but seems to have hit a mental wall training for this year's Worlds. She seems to be convincing herself that she is no good at anything and her cycling performance has definitely gone backwards. I belong to the WTFU school and am struggling to help her. Are there any books you can recommend or SP people I could get her to talk to in the Sheffield area? Any constructive help would be gratefully received.
