Use Visual Milestones During Endurance Work

During runs, swims, or cycling, focus on a landmark or milestone to generate more effort, then relax by dilating the visual field afterward; alternate focused and panoramic vision to help regulate effort and efficiency.

1 / 1

If you focus your attention on a landmark that you're going to run to, you'll find that it's much easier than if you don't actually have a set milestone or landmark that you're going to run to... One thing that can be useful is focusing on a milestone, running to that milestone... and then dilating your field of view to relax the system and then continuing again.
