306. Sick of running? How to get your spark back
Description
Running is awesome… until it’s not. We fall in love with training cycles, goals, PRs — but sometimes? That grind catches up. You’ve been:
Training back to back with no break
Tied too tightly to your watch or pace
Comparing yourself constantly
Pushing through stress outside of running, too
Eventually, what was fun starts to feel like work. And your body and brain say, “I’m out.”
Part 2: Signs You’re Burned Out (3:30 –5:00 ) Here’s what it can look like: 😒 Every run feels like a chore 🛑 You keep skipping workouts but don’t feel better 😤 You’re irritated by runners who are “loving it” right now 📉 You’ve stopped seeing progress and don’t even care
If this sounds like you — the answer isn’t always “push through.” It might be time to pull back to move forward.
