Having a clear goal is a key step in mindset work for running. Having a personal running mission statement is the next level in linking your next run to a bigger purpose.

In this episode we explore what a running mission statement is and how you can create one to understand the deeper meaning behind why you run.  It is another way that running can be the vehicle to unlock more of your potential and power and help those around you as well.

Many of us don't allow ourselves to feel the emotion of pride. It can be thought of as being arrogant, egotistical, or simply not ok to feel proud of what we have achieved, or who we have become. 

In this episode, I reflect on my interview with Brett Connellan from last year to dive deeper into how we can our relationship with pride and start to feel it as a positive emotion that leads to boosting our confidence.

Eight months ago, my running came to an abrupt halt due to injury. What followed was an unexpected journey which has lead me into a deeper understanding and connection to the very essence of why I run.

This episode is not just my story; it’s an invitation to explore the layers of motivation, passion, and purpose that drive you and your running.

From the initial despair of being sidelined, through the struggles of recovery, to the profound revelations about running and its impact on our lives, we’ll delve into the heart of what keeps us lacing up our shoes, even when the road gets tough.

Join me as we uncover the deeper "whys" of running, learned through the lens of injury and introspection, and how these insights can illuminate our paths, not just as runners, but in the journey of life itself.
