s4/e17 When Is It Time to STOP Chasing a Goal? with Claire Bartholic @theplantedrunner
We are often praised for the relentless pursuit of a goal, but what about when it's actually better for you to STOP chasing that goal? Coach and runner Claire Bartholic (@theplantedrunner) shares her own journey of what it cost her to finally achieve her coveted sub-3 marathon goal... and why she decided to step away from marathons altogether after crossing that finish line.
KEY TAKEAWAYS!
Chasing big running goals requires dedication, yes, but it's essential to assess whether the goal is realistic and sustainable in the long term
Finding balance and enjoyment in running is crucial for long-term fulfillment.
Retiring from a specific goal does not diminish a coach's ability to guide and support athletes.
It's okay to pivot and pursue different goals that align with personal values and bring joy.
Validation from achieving a goal should not be the sole motivation for running; intrinsic satisfaction and personal growth are equally important.
