Winter Slump, No Race, Now What?

In this episode, we talk honestly about what happens when there’s no race on the calendar and motivation starts to slip. We unpack anxiety, perfectionism, self-sabotage, and the pressure we put on ourselves as goal-oriented people, and how small daily habits like two miles a day or 30 minutes of movement can rebuild momentum. This is about discipline without shame, and how small, consistent steps lead to big goals over time.#runreflectrepeat#897toaustin#wogitout

In this episode, we reflect on a strong start to the year with three early marathons, followed by an unexpected season of burnout, life transitions, and taking a much-needed break. We talk honestly about overconfidence, discipline, and the difference between “can you” and “should you” when it comes to racing. As we reset our goals, we’re choosing a slower, steadier build, prioritizing consistency, balance, and long-term growth over rushing the journey.#runreflectrepeat#897toaustin#wogitout
