One of the major reasons we started Eat Cake Run club was to have a place where we all can get better as runners and more importantly humans.
To do that we get the chance to be vulnerable and have real conversations and thoughts…
So for today REAL TALK Monday morning conversation…
WHAT IS ONE LIE YOU TELL YOURSELF—AND ACTUALLY BELIEVE—ABOUT YOURSELF AS A RUNNER?
Maybe it’s:
“I’m always slow.”
“I’m not a real runner because…”
“I’ll never be able to run that far.”
“Everyone else is better than me.”
“I am told old”
Ads yours here …
Because The truth is, we all have one.
Running isn’t just physical. The legs may carry us down the miles , but the mind determines how far we’re willing to go.
The biggest battles in running usually happen between our ears, not beneath our feet.
In fact, I’d argue that running is 95% mental.
The body is often capable of far more than the mind gives it permission to do.
And if you’re thinking, “I don’t tell myself any lies…”
Congratulations. You just found your second one.
So let’s be honest this morning:
WHAT’S ONE LIE YOU’VE BEEN TELLING YOURSELF AS A RUNNER, AND WHAT TRUTH SHOULD REPLACE IT?
