Having a mental breakdown during training? You're not alone, and you're definitely not weak. In this episode, we're creating a safe space for every runner who's ever wanted to quit mid-run, whether you're training for your first 5K or chasing a Boston qualifier.

We're not here to toxic-positivity our way through your struggle – we're here to acknowledge it, validate it, and give you real tools to work through it. From immediate reset strategies to building long-term mental resilience, this is your roadmap for turning your hardest running moments into your strongest.

Topics covered:

  • Permission to feel without judgment
  • Right-now triage for mental breakdowns
  • Building your confidence bank account
  • The body-mind connection (fuel, hydration, and emotions)
  • Developing anti-fragile runner identity
  • Tools for your mental toolbelt

Remember: asking for help is strength, and every step forward counts – even the messy ones.
