At 33 years old, Jen Dossetto found herself starting over.

Her marriage had ended, she had moved back in with her parents, and for the first time in years she was trying to rediscover who she was outside of a relationship that had slowly taken over her life.

Then her sister suggested something simple: parkrun.

Jen had never been a runner, but something about the idea sparked a curiosity... and it completely transformed her life.

In this episode of Runbelievable, Joshie and Natty sit down with Jen to talk about rebuilding confidence, finding independence, and how running can become the thing that helps you reclaim yourself.

From her first parkrun to half marathons, trail running, and the community events she now loves, Jen’s story is about how running doesn’t just improve fitness.. it can reshape identity.
