MWM Episode 92 - Doing What it Takes
This week the mileage is going up.
More running. More lifting. A midweek double. Early mornings when it would be easier to stay in bed.
And if I’m being honest… it’s inconvenient.
That’s the part most people don’t talk about.
We all like the idea of big goals—running your first ultra, pushing further than you ever have, proving something to yourself. But what those goals actually require? That’s where most people hesitate.
In this episode, I break down what it really looks like to train when life is already full—and why waiting for the “right time” is usually what keeps people stuck.
If you’ve been thinking about going after something big but aren’t sure how it fits into your life… this one is for you.
What You’ll Learn:
Why inconvenience—not ability—is what holds most runners back
The difference between “fitting training in” vs building life around a goal
How to stay consistent when your schedule is already full
Why big goals require uncomfortable adjustments
