Deena Kastor started running because her parents wanted something to help her keep busy. She did very well. She soon discovered that she had a lot of natural talent for running and started winning many races. She had a lot of success, but found her mind could be her mind could be her biggest impediment. She later went to train with a coach in the mountains. He helped with altitude training as well as attitude training. She was able to have significant success, but also had additional challenges going forward. While sports are about physical skill, the mental part can be even more important.
