Do you find yourself saying, “I hate running” every time someone mentions lacing up? You’re not alone, and today’s episode of Run Your Happy Life is here to flip the script! I’m sharing my own story of how I went from despising every step to discovering the incredible gifts running can bring—like confidence, clarity, and yes, even joy.

We’ll dig into why running feels so hard at first (spoiler: I’ve been there), and how your past experiences might be holding you back. Plus, I’ll challenge you to reflect on what’s really fueling your dislike of running—and how small changes could make all the difference.

And guess what? You don’t have to go it alone! Our next FREE "Make Me a Runner" challenge kicks off on January 5th. It’s your chance to shake things up, find your rhythm, and surprise yourself. Sign up now at tinarepa.com/run—let’s make running something you love (or at least don’t hate)!
