Lace Up and Brunch (Brunch Running)

In this podcast episode, freelance journalist and run coach, Ashley Mateo shares valuable insights on the drawbacks of the "no days off" mentality in running, emphasizing the importance of recovery, listening to your body, and finding joy in the sport. She discusses the challenges of run streaks, the evolving conversation around recovery and strength training in the running community, and the need for flexibility in goal-setting. Ashley encourages runners to focus on the journey rather than fixating on end results, advocating for a more holistic approach that embraces variability and individual preferences. In the episode we reflect on building a positive relationship with running and fostering self-awareness within the running community.
