The Extra Mile! Why you started...

In this bonus episode of RunPod, host Jenny Falconer invites listeners to reflect on the true reasons behind their decision to start running. She emphasizes that it's not about tangible goals like signing up for races or using apps, but rather the deeper motivations that drive each individual. Falconer shares her own journey of starting to run as a way to lose weight, which soon evolved into something much more significant: a source of freedom, fitness, clarity, and confidence.

As she encourages listeners to revisit the moments that ignited their passion for running, Falconer acknowledges that it's easy to lose sight of that original spark, especially on tough days filled with heavy legs and low motivation. She reassures listeners that their reasons for running remain valid and present, even when they feel discouraged or like they are starting over. The episode concludes with a motivational call to remember one’s initial inspiration and let that fuel future runs.
