The Case for Quitting with Lindsay Crouse

This is a must-listen episode for anyone looking to forge a new path or relieve mounting pressures—whether in life or in running. It’s an intriguing conversation with journalist and longtime runner Lindsay Crouse, whose brand-new book is called The Case for Quitting. Lindsay talks with hosts Sarah Bowen Shea and Tish Hamilton about:

-perseverance and quitting not being opposites

-what “microquitting” is, and how it can help you say no

-how to stop confusing survival with success

-the importance of having a finish line for challenging endeavors

-why you should use verbs, instead of nouns, in defining yourself!

Tish details her recent Lake Placid getaway in the intro chitchat; Lindsay joins the episode around 09:45.
