It's not mental. It's physical. They are direct opposite in muscle fiber composition. Kenny fast twitch, sprinter. Webb slow twitch takes time to get going but can go forever. When Kenny has burnt through his depo it's very difficult to maintain intensity. It's like when adrenaline starts to wear off but much more hidden. 

The older you get, the more visible it gets. I'm fast twitch myself. Even if I from a mental perspective can keep going in duration sports, physically I cant. 

Elite Skiers, runners has had this figured out for a long time. Dont even bother going elite if you don't have the genes. Today you can test for it early in carreer and a lot of sports do that. 

So it's not really fair to say it's mental for Kenny.

Kenny didn’t choke. Webb was all over him and the better rider. Still Kenny is in it and his best season in years. If it wasn’t for his mistake attempting to pass those lappers in a sketchy part of the track, he’d have the red plate.

And if Jett wasn't on his couch, he'd have the red plate.

Kenny has way more talent than Webb but Webbs mentality is the difference

I think Ken has a partial high twitch body.  With our high short shorts bball uniform. With a 110 camera that doesn’t catch much definition. My 8th grade bod u could see every muscle fiber of legs & arms in uniform. Throw in farm work since 3 yrs old & your dunking in 8th grade .  10 th grade tap a quarter off the top of the backboard, at 6 , 1 3/4 .  Go to the Penn  st relays on a Olympic yr.  Those r high twitch bodies of the sprinters.  Retired Packer players hv huge warehouse training for rich kids. To develop high twitch athlete bodies.  Kids in grade school train there threw hs. It does improve there bodies. But nowhere to the level of natural from birth genetics. You can still hv endurance to extreme levels . By just releasing a small % of your sprint energy. I can easily do hrs on end of sprint sit-ups at 58 yrs old .  The 40+ hr days trucking a worse than a jackhammer is tough .  It’s extremely difficult to even stand or walk afterwards.

Was hoping kenny would get over the line. Psychologically he had to win that against Webb.
