Ep 98: How NOT to psyche yourself up for a marathon

This past Saturday, I completed my 4th marathon! It was my first trail marathon, and I was kinda a baby about the whole thing! It was mentally and physically hard. Although the course was very flat and clear, the 37 degree weather and flooding on the course made it hard for me to be super psyched about it. I was very worried the night before because I hate being cold, and I hate having wet feet!

I still knew I was going to complete the race. I knew it wasn't going to be pretty, but my 4 months of training were not going to be for nothing.

I'll be back later this week with a (more positive) recap of the race.

When we do challenging things, we get stronger.

Even really imperfect attempts at challenging things.
