Are you struggling to feel confident in your running? Or maybe you’ve lost touch with why you started in the first place?

In this episode, Coach G guides you through a powerful mindset exercise to reconnect with your running self and step into the runner you’re becoming.

We’ll explore:

• How to honour the runner you’ve been - reflecting on past races, training, and the mental, physical, and emotional challenges you’ve overcome.
• How to define the runner you want to be, so every run feels intentional, confident, and aligned with your goals.
• The transformative power of “I am…” statements to rewire your mindset, reinforce your identity, and move with purpose.
• Simple exercises and journal prompts to connect past, present, and future runner selves.

Whether you’re a beginner, a returning runner, or a seasoned athlete, this episode helps you shift from chasing pace or medals to cultivating presence, resilience, and joy in every step.
