Episode 548 - MM - 196 - Look up when you walk

The ZenRUN Podcast ·

2025/11/12

This week’s mindful moment invites you to shift your perspective—literally: look up when you walk. Whether you’re heading down the street, walking through your home, or out for a stroll in nature, try lifting your gaze. We spend so much time looking down—at our phones, our feet, or lost in thought—but above us, the world is alive with movement and light.Notice the tops of trees, drifting clouds, birds in flight, or the way sunlight filters through rooftops. This small change in direction can open

In this first check-in for Delirious W.E.S.T. 2026, I catch up with Craig Jeffrey — who’s clocking a casual 160 km a week as he gears up for the Kosciuszko 100 Miler 😅. We chat about what it really takes to bounce back from a 200-miler, why “average” is just a setting on your watch, and how being mindful mid-race might actually save your stomach (and your sanity). Craig opens up about lessons from Delirious, how long recovery really takes, and his plan to finally not throw up at the same spot in

Episode 545 - MM 195 - Lean against something

The ZenRUN Podcast ·

2025/11/05

This week’s mindful moment is a quiet invitation to rest: lean against something. It might be a wall, a tree, a fence—whatever’s nearby. Gently press your back or shoulder into it and allow yourself to feel fully supported. Close your eyes if that feels good, and take a few slow, grounding breaths.This practice is about more than physical rest—it’s a reminder that you don’t have to hold everything yourself. Leaning, even for a moment, creates a pause where the body and nervous system can soften

Ben shares what it was like revisiting Yurrebilla eight years after his last go, how smarter pacing and hill training turned pain into power, and what he learned from his first proper carb-loading experiment (spoiler: 1,200 grams of carbs in two days feels just as heavy as it sounds 😅).

Episode 541 - MM 194- Check In with Your Jaw

The ZenRUN Podcast ·

2025/10/29

This week’s mindful moment is small but mighty: check in with your jaw. We carry so much tension in this one small part of the body—often without even realising it. So today, pause and notice: is your jaw clenched? Is your tongue pressed to the roof of your mouth? Take a deep breath and let it all soften. Release your jaw, drop your tongue, maybe even yawn dramatically. This gentle reset not only relaxes your face but signals your entire nervous system to let go. One small action can ripple through

This week’s mindful moment invites you into gentle, expressive movement with let your hands speak. Instead of using your hands for a task, take a quiet moment to move them freely—like they’re telling a story.

This week’s mindful moment invites you to pause and observe something you interact with every day: follow the path of water. Whether you’re washing your hands, making tea, rinsing fruit, or running a bath—slow down and watch the water. Notice how it flows from the tap, slips through your fingers, or swirls into a cup. Feel its temperature, hear its rhythm, and take in the graceful way it moves. Water becomes your mindfulness guide, reminding you to soften, to flow, and to let go. It’s a calming,
