Short episode summary If it hurts to run, should you power through? The answer might surprise you! Tune in and learn when you should stop vs when you should keep going.   Timestamps of big takeaways [00:50] Endurance athletes push through pain for success, but should you?  [02:05] A lot of us can do more than we mentally think we can. The trouble is that endurance runners only train in endurance. [02:51] Distance runners didn’t grow up sprinting though, but watch any kid in a race and they are going to go full throttle and see what they’ve got. [03:00] You won’t do it for very long though. You’re just trying to see if you can do it. That’s intensity. [03:58] Feeling your knee killing you during a run - that’s a completely different pain. [06:41] Endurance athletes push through discomfort for success. They may get tired and feel fatigue or just general discomfort, but they keep going. You can too. [07:53] You may hit a wall at a certain mile, but that just means you may need interval training and drills. [10:57] Discomfort is fine, but real pain like a broken toe or bleeding injury is not okay! [12:34] It’s important to understand pain vs struggle, and resilience in training.   Rate, Review & Subscribe Reminder Don’t forget to like and subscribe to our show.
