079: When Races Don’t Go as Planned
Description
In this episode of the Tribe of Runners podcast, host Liz Myers (thats me) opens up about one of the hardest parts of being a runner... when races don’t go as planned. From injuries that force tough decisions like a DNF to not being able to race the race you've been training for to uncontrollable factors like weather or environmental conditions - those act of god that we cannot control. These setbacks are an inevitable part of the sport. I shares some of my own personal journey of facing injury and dropping out of a major race, offering an honest look at the emotional side of these experiences.
Through my reflections, I try to highlight the importance of processing the disappointment, leaning on support systems, and making mindset shifts that turn setbacks into opportunities for growth. I also share practical strategies for adapting training, finding fresh motivation through new races, and keeping a positive outlook on the journey ahead.
