how does one get a clear mind before a race and stay focused throughout the race or stay in a zone state of mind?

I am just a kid, but I have some tips that I use in any compitition. Before the race I do some basic meditation, Breath deeply, count the breaths up to ten and then start over. Consentrate only on the breathing. Right before the race, I visualize my self in the race and focus on that. I position myself before on the start, I go through my first moves. I repeat this over and over.
