🏅 Step into the dynamic world of marathon running with The Marathon Mates' engaging podcast, Out and Back, hosted by Tony from The Flying RuNR. This episode delves into the prevalent issue among runners: the intense focus on achieving a particular goal time. As major marathon events draw near, the anticipation and pressure to hit personal bests can be overwhelming.

 Yet, Tony highlights the potential downsides of this obsession, urging runners to prioritize the overall experience. Imagine being three weeks away from the New York City Marathon while dealing with an unexpected health setback. The primary concern should be recovery, not merely reaching a time milestone.

 Influential voices in the running community are now encouraging a paradigm shift towards enjoying the marathon journey itself. At The Flying Runner, the belief has always been 'Fun times, finish lines, not fast times.' The unpredictable nature of major marathons, with their variable weather and crowded courses, can significantly impact pacing.

 By reducing the emphasis on exact time goals, runners can transform their race day into a celebration of endurance and spirit. Rather than a fixed time, consider targeting a broader time frame, allowing for flexibility and adaptability. This strategy not only enhances the enjoyment of the race but also protects against injuries and burnout.
