Since October, Canadian pole vaulter Alysha Newman has worked with mental performance coach Dr. Beth McCharles and says it’s helped set her mind in a certain place
Alysha Newman is seeing things in a different light – and more specifically, looking for an edge.
“I think my mental has broadened me and brought me up a level physically,” she told The Canadian Press. “I’ve always been a very, very talented and gifted athlete. But what separates you from being the best of the best, I definitely think it comes down to mentality. Between the pandemic and injuries, specifically a lingering concussion suffered in April 2021, and a stress fracture in her left heel that prematurely ended her 2022 season, Newman has had plenty to work through.
A key for the program is “to identify and support named athletes who have the potential to contribute directly to our Olympic and Paralympic success” according to the organization’s website. Since October, Newman has worked with mental performance coach Dr. Beth McCharles and says it’s helped set her mind in a certain place.
With past failures adding fuel to her fire, Newman aims to be the one everyone looks at in the sport.
