Sunday, 20 September, 2026

Hello everyone and welcome to another episode of the Performance Psychcast. Today we are very fortunate to be speaking with Dr Chris Gunn. Chris is a Chartered Psychologist with the British Psychological Society, a Senior Lecturer in Psychology, and a researcher with publications focused on self-control and motivation in endurance settings. Chris is currently completing his applied sport psychology accreditation through CASES. Chris works with endurance athletes such as runners, triathletes and cyclists, who are serious about their performance and want to develop the psychological side of their training with the same rigour they bring to their physical preparation.
