In this episode of The Average Runner Podcast, I’m recapping my most recent trail race—from the highs and lows to what I learned along the way. I also share what I’m training for next and how I’m adjusting my approach moving forward. Plus, we’re diving into mindset and the comparison trap—how to stop measuring your progress against other runners and focus on running your own race. Whether you’re a trail runner, road runner, or somewhere in between, this episode is packed with takeaways to keep you motivated.

🎧 Tune in, and let’s talk all things running!
