Paul's On The Run: The Battle Within - Resistance and Passion in Ultra Running
Manage episode 428569150 series 2650447
In this episode of the Pyllon Ultra Pod, host Paul delves into the often-overlooked topic of resistance and its impact on ultra-running. Rather than focusing on conventional training tips, Paul explores the deeper, more existential aspects of why we run and how resistance shapes our journey. Drawing inspiration from Steven Pressfield's "The War of Art," this episode discusses the dissonance between our desire to train hard and race well and the actual actions we take. Paul shares personal anecdotes, research insights, and practical advice on how to recognise and overcome resistance to find true passion in ultra-running.
Key Topics Discussed:
- Understanding the concept of resistance and its forms: procrastination, self-doubt, fear, and distraction.
- The importance of acknowledging resistance as a natural part of any endeavour.
- Insights from "The War of Art" by Steven Pressfield.
- Practical tips for finding joy in the struggle, seeking passion over perfection, and being present in your runs.
