How to Understand and Deal with the Post-Race Blues

The 'post-race blues' are a common and natural experience which most athletes will experience at some point in their journey. We need to talk about, normalise and understand them more in the running community to help people prepare and strategise for them in advance.
This episode will help you to do that.

How to Become a Lifelong Runner, Avoid Injury and Choose Your Own Meaning of Success as a Runner.

I’m honoured to have Garry Wheeler on the podcast. At 65 years of age Garry is a shining example to us all of how to write your own definition of what success is, decide on your own goals and how to know yourself as an athlete and a person. I learned so much from Garry in this interview and I know you will too.

Part of me wants to go for a run and part of me doesn’t

If you've ever felt like a part of you wanted to do something, and a part of you didn't - then you are not alone. In this episode you'll learn how to understand yourself on a deeper level, and how to move past those hidden blocks of procrastination, indecision and feeling that you don't have the 'discipline' to stick to your new running habit.
