One More Run, the Podcast

AJ and Erika

One More Run (The Podcast) is a show dedicated to helping runners—especially those training for a runDisney race—feel confident, prepared, and inspired for their next magical race adventure.

Participating in a runDisney race should be fun and memorable, but it’s so easy to feel unprepared and overwhelmed by all the things you need to know; not only to run the race, but to prepare for it. We totally understand, and want to share all the tips and tricks we’ve learned to help you have a fun and stress-free experience. If you’re new to runDisney, or a veteran runner, listening to the podcast is the perfect way to confidently prepare for your race so you can fully enjoy the magic of runDisney.

Ep 46 - Mental toughness, grit and resilience (with special guest, Fireman Rob)
If you've ever seen a firefighter doing a runDisney race in full gear, you've been lucky enough to have seen Fireman Rob! In this episode, we sit down with one of the most inspiring people in the runDisney community. Rob is a 26-year firefighting veteran, military medic, and 911 rescue worker who has logged over 1,400 miles completing races in his fire gear across Iron Mans, marathons, and runDisney races alike. And he's not doing it for him... he's doing it for us. We dig into the mental side of running including what it really means to have grit, how to build resilience before you even get to the starting line, emotional control on the course, and why showing up (even when you don't want to) is the definition of resilience. Rob also shares his personal story of mental health and what keeps him coming back to Disney year after year. Whether you're running your first half marathon or your fiftieth, this episode will leave you inspired for sure!
