  1. Hey Cait, great article – well written. I love the point about running reshaping expectations of discomfort. I agree and would add that everything in life that is uncomfortable is worthwhile. I read somewhere that you did 5km in under 16min. That’s outstanding – would love to keep reading your articles and tips. Thanks for sharing!

    • Thanks for the kind words and comment, Andrew! It’s great to connect with you and YES please do keep on coming back, reading and letting me know your thoughts. I DEFINITELY agree the most worthwhile things in life take overcoming a degree of discomfort. 🙂

  2. I am stepping out of my comfort zone for the next 10 weeks, as I go through this training cycle for the Marine Corps Marathon. The training plan I’m following has higher mileage, more running, and a track or strength workout every week. That’s all new for me and having my legs never feeling fresh is helping me learn that I can run on tired legs. That will definitely come in use during the later miles of the marathon.
