Life happens! But thankfully, more often than not, we can keep running. Sometimes though, life happens in such a way that running is forced to grind to a halt. In this episode, we chat with runners who had to become ‘runners who don’t run’ for a period of time. They share their experiences, their struggles, the mental adjustments needed and the process of getting back into running. The themes of having a flexible approach and staying connected to your running community come through each story. We hope this episode provides encouragement if life is currently happening for you. And if life is relatively smooth sailing I'm sure you'll love getting to know Laurina Bowlen, Michaela Wilson, and Mel Perry.
