maybe it’s when you’re getting ready for the day and sipping your coffee, maybe it’s when you’re driving to the gym or doing your homework, maybe it’s when you’re getting ready for bed and doing some stretches. whatever you reason may be, I encourage you to throw on an episode, romanticize your life, and take the time to take care of yourself and listen to the ways in which you too can create a dream life full of happiness for yourself

I would be nothing without the love and support I feel from this community. I’ve grown so much in the four years since creating @kylierunssmiley and having you people here for everything has brought me a confidence and sense of self I never knew I had within me.

EP11- On Running Slower Than Before
In my four years of college I have never raced faster than my high school PRs. A large reason for this has been my battles with injury: 4 bone injuries and two major surgeries. Racing again after time away (to heal) yields a mixture of emotions - happiness and gratitude to be competing but doubt/frustration that running feels hard/you’re not running the way you used to. This is a fairly universal experience for an injured runner but it’s not talked about enough. I want to share some tips I have mastered on the subject through my injury cycles to hopefully provide some love, encouragement, and healthy reminders.
Topics Covered in This Episode:
Racing Track for the first time in 2 years!
Details about my injury cycle/what kept me stuck in it
How I Finally Broke Through From the injury cycle
How to remain emotionally resilient when running slower than before
How to Remain Consistent
How I cut 63 seconds off my 3K time in four weeks
Insights into The best perspective a runner could adopt
I hope you all enjoy listening to this lil episode! I know that listening will leave you feeling empowered and inspired.
