#24 - Don't Get Bitter, Get Better

The Mile You"re In ·

2021/12/15

When we allow our failures to get to us emotionally, we become bitter, sometimes even towards our friends, loved ones, and supporters. Nobody truly enjoys feeling this way but it's a natural emotion that can occur and take time to get over. Some personal running failures and let down in 2021 led me to become bitter and almost enjoy seeing people fail. I was not happy with that mindset and had to re-evaluate myself and my outlook on life. I discuss this and provide some encouragement for anyone else

As a professional runner, getting a sponsorship can be a big deal. Whether it's clothing and gear, races and travel, media opportunities or more, every little bit helps.

2021/09/07

When you accomplish something, you should experience some sort of joy or happiness. It shouldn't feel like relief. You should be able to enjoy what you do and the journey along the way.
