More or less every time I line up for a race or hard workout, there is fear that comes in those moments. I think about questions like... how much will it hurt? how will I deal with the path? will I respond or crack under the pressure? what if I do crack?

Inevitably though, when faced with my physical, I do respond. It's not always great or perfect, but I learn something about myself every single time. I've also learned many other truths from taking part in the journey itself, both from my own revelations as well as the insights of my running friends and community.

In this episode with many-time guest James Dodds, we discuss this big question. What has running taught us? What truths has it revealed to us and how do we relish in those moments to learn?
