377: Does Running Require Voluntary Suffering?
Manage episode 440680199 series 3503387
In episode 377 of the Real Life Runners Podcast, we delve into the concept of voluntary suffering in running and debate whether it's a necessary component of our sport. We share our unique perspectives on what constitutes voluntary suffering and how it varies among runners. Our discussion includes personal anecdotes about training for different distances, from miles to marathons, and even ultra-marathons, highlighting individual preferences for short vs. long-distance running. We also talk about how our willingness to endure suffering can shape our performance, including the differences between running and racing and how external goals like the Boston Marathon can influence motivation. Additionally, we address the expectations and actual experiences of both new and seasoned runners, including high school athletes, and stress how mindsets can evolve. Towards the end, we touch on unnecessary suffering and how it can be counterproductive if not balanced well. We conclude by emphasizing the importance of aligning training and goals with the level of discomfort you're willing to endure.
