Amcanion cyffredinol

*This module is suitable for, and aimed at, students who are not runners, or at least not very experienced runners*

“I am a marathoner” – repeating this phrase to yourself and introducing yourself as such can actually take you one step closer to achieving a personal endurance goal that you never thought possible – running a marathon. The overarching principle for this module is that seemingly unattainable long-term goals can be achieved with the right understanding and application of theory, namely an integration of positive and motivational psychology. This module takes, potentially inexperienced, runners through a specific training programme for running a marathon. The module is based on core psychological theory which is then applied in a very real way to running training and performance. A similar approach has demonstrated success in marathon running: over ten years, David Whitsett and Forrest Dolgener from the University of Northern Iowa have coached almost 200 students through to a successful marathon.

The module comprises one two-hour lecture per week and a three-hour workshop/training session. The lectures will cover content and introduce theories to guide and govern successful goal setting and achievement. The workshops will combine discussion and reflection with group training. Each workshop will also incorporate a 'clinic' where various running issues and themes (e.g. footware, hydration, injury etc) can be explored. There are four training days per week and one of the runs will be undertaken as a group during the workshop time. The purpose of the module is to realise the potential within us all to achieve greater things than we ever imagined possible. It is a real-world application of goal-directed psychology and the power of positive, motivational psychology. Students enrolled on this module will develop a sense of empowerment and recognition of how their own personality (including its limitations) impacts upon their potential for success. Whilst specifically focussing on the challenge of running a marathon, the skills and principles learned can be applied to any situation in life. Fundamentally, this module is about learning to be successful and resilient in setting and achieving goals in a challenging and unpredictable world.

Cynnwys cwrs

This course will cover topics from psychological theory and application that are relevant for marathon preparation. Topics will include:

Expectations and running (including personality type, motivation, performance anxiety, goal setting); Nutrition and running (impact of good nutrition on motivation, mental well-being and self-belief); Emotions and running (the ‘wall’, fear, attributional theories of emotion and bodily sensation); Cognition and running (self-talk, mental imagery, locus of control, distraction, mindfulness); Behaviour and running (action-reflection cycle, flow, effort and reinforcement); Resilience and mental toughness (including dealing with set-backs and failures).

There is an expectation that students will be able to run approx 3-5k comfortably before starting the module and therefore this module will not be suitable for students with physical disabilities or ailments that restrict running ability. Each student will also have to self-certify that they are helathy and wel enough to undertake the module, and that they will consult their GP should they feel otherwise, before they undertake this training. Therefore any heart conditions, epilepsy etc would need to be considered in line with the module aims by the GP before a student were to sign up. The aim of the module is to train to run a marathon and students should be prepared to do this before starting the module. It is understood that illness/accidents can occur during the course of a module and, if that were to be the case, the student would need to use the psychological principles taught within the module to adapt their goal and overcome disappointment/change in group dynamic etc.

Each week we wil host a seminar where we discuss how the theories learnt can be applied to goal-setting, specifically within the context of training for a marathon. The two hour session is broken into a one hour seminar, where we may have guest speakers, and then a one-hour running session. Students should come dressed in weather-appropriate running gear and be ready to take part in the practical aspect of the module.

**There are financial implications for this module. Students will need to invest in good quality running shoes and running equipment. Since one blog requires a race reflection, you will be expected to enter a half marathon before the Easter Break. You will also need to pay for the final marathon.** [Non-financial implications: 1. Students will need to commit to threee to four runs per week (only one of which takes place during class time). **The expectation is that you will run EVERY week unless signed off by a medical professional** 2. Students will need to visit their GP satisfy themselves that they have no underlying medical conditions which would compromise their marathon training. Students will be asked to confirm that they have no underlying conditions which they feel might affecrt their ability to train for a marathon and that, should they have concerns, they will consult their GP. 3. It is expected that you have prepared for the module and are ableto run 5K reasonably comfortably before you begin - it doesn't need to be fast!!
