I think that we can all agree that the fear we experience at the beginning (or during the early stages of training) is REAL!  After the initial high & excitement of signing up, most runners have some fear about how the hell they're going to accomplish their goal.  In this episode I'm going to share how I deal with the fear.

It would be this: DON'T QUIT.  Quitting will slow you down.  It'll chip away at your confidence and it will have you caught in a never ending cycle.  There's going to be lots of ups and downs on the path towards crossing the finish line of your race.  Some days you'll feel like you're on top of the world, you're firing on all cylinders, and like you're completely untouchable.   And then there will be days where quitting feels like the best & most humane option to put you out of your misery.  In this episode I make the argument for why you should avoid quitting at all costs!

It's been 7 days since I injured my left ankle.  In this episode I'm going to share some of the behind the scenes stuff including all emotion/mindset work I've been doing to keep myself in a "good place".  This is a two part episode - I recorded the first half in the morning and the second half in the afternoon AFTER my appointment with the orthopedic doctors so you get to hear the results of my evaluation in real time!

I'm 90 days out from my first race and on Monday, I came down with the flu.  0/10. Definitely don't recommend it.  But it did give me some time to reflect on best practices when it comes to getting sick, recovering, and getting back to training.

I'm betting you've said this to yourself at least once or twice.  We all have a preconceived notion of what it means to be a "real" runner (or ultra runner). 

For some of us it's based on how fast we run, or the number of times we run a week, or how far we run....and the list goes on.  

We build these concepts up in our head based on our experiences, things we've seen or read or heard, maybe because of what someone said to us. 

In today's episode I want to share a couple of stories that will help you understand that you're not alone and that YOU ARE a real ultra runner (even if your brain says otherwise!)
