Any thoughts out there as to the influence the mind has over the body ? Anyone getting in touch with their Chi ? Is Chi just the ability to focus ? Ever ruined a race by dwelling on it for too long or with too much intensity ? Is this what they mean by " Paralysis by Analysis " ? What are the mental keys to good performance ? Is it only about conditioning and Adrenalin ? Ever been psyched out or, conversely, psyched someone out ? What's that all about ? Ever get into a "zone" or really good space while racing ? Feeling invincible, not getting fatigued......... Remember what Obi Won told Luke Skywalker on the death star : "Luke, feel the force. Let go.....the force will be with you ." I, for one, have been there-have experienced some of the above stuff. Am I just a head-case, or do I have company ?????:confused: Bert
