61. If I Can't Run, Am I Still an Ultra Runner?

If you can't run ultras right now, are you still an ultra runner? It's a question no runner wants to ask, but injuries, DNFs, setbacks, and major life changes have a way of forcing it into the spotlight. When running is a big part of how you see yourself, losing the ability to run can feel like losing a part of who you are. In this episode, I share my own experience of facing that question after two difficult DNFs, six months without running, and a hip replacement. You'll discover why identity is self-assigned, not circumstance-assigned, and how to stay connected to the ultra runner you are even when you can't train, race, or finish the way you want to.

60. How to Make Peace with What You Can't Control

Six years ago, a surgeon told me I had only two years of running left before I would need a hip replacement. In an instant, the future I had imagined for myself as an ultra runner disappeared. What followed was six years of fear, grief, frustration, uncertainty, and countless moments when I wished things were different. I wanted a different outcome. I wanted a different reality. What helped me through wasn't avoiding that reality, it was learning how to accept it and keep moving forward anyway. In this episode, I share the three mental mastery tools that helped me face an uncertain future, make difficult decisions, and find peace with a situation I never would have chosen. Whether you’re dealing with an injury, a race that didn’t go as planned, or a challenge completely outside of running, these lessons will show you how to move forward when life refuses to cooperate.
